Question

Why the hybridisation state of S in SO2 is sp2 ?

Answer 1

Answer:

Mark it as brainliest

Yes

Explanation:

SO2 has has a lone pair and two bonded atoms thus 3 parts thus sp2

Answer 2

Explanation:

bcoz in this use the formula of

Formal charge.

$f = v - l - 1 \div 2s$

V = valence electrons

L = lone pair (unpaired electrons)

S = shared paired electrons

And the table of hybrid orbitals are;

2 = sp

3 = sp2

4 = sp3

5 = sp4

6 = sp5
