Question

intermolecular force present in sulfur dioxide​

Answer 1

Intermolecular force present in sulfur dioxide is dipole-dipole interactions.

• With reference to the structure of sulfur dioxide it can be observed that it is a V-shaped molecule. The molecule has a bent shape due to the presence of lone pair of electron.
• So due to the bent shape of sulfur dioxide it can be inferred that it is a polar molecule.
• Hence, being a polar molecule sulfur dioxide has dipole-dipole intermolecular forces.
