Question

Number of p pi d pi bonds in SO2Cl2

Answer 1

Answer:

Explain pπ- pπ bond is 3

Pπ- dπ bond is 1

Answer 2

The number of p-pi d-pi double bonds in SO2Cl2 is equal to two.

• SO2Cl2 has a tetrahedral structure with two oxygen atoms double bonded to the central sulfur atom and the two chlorine atoms single bonded to sulfur atom.
• Since SO2Cl2 is tetrahedral, the hybridization of the central sulfur atom is sp3.
• Hence, all the three p-orbitals of sulfur are used in sigma bonding.So, both the pi bond formed by it will be of p-pi d-pi in nature.
