Complete the Lewis structures of SO2 and SO3. Be sure to draw only the resonance form with the lowest formal charges (zero) on all atoms. Do not add the formal charges to the structures. Then predict the solubility of the structures.

Solutions

Expert Solution

Polar compounds are more soluble than nonpolar compounds.

Here SO2 polar due to the bent geometry ( dipole momentum not equa to zero).

SO3 is nonpolar due to planar geometry (dipole momentum is zero)

Resonance structures are Lewis structures drawn for a molecule when more than one Lewis structure is needed to explain the molecular structure. Resonance results in extended __________? of some electrons among more than two nuclei of the molecule. This results in lowering of kinetic and potential energies that imparts added stability to the molecule. Note. In covalent bond formation the bonding electrons are delocalized between only two atoms. Resonance is taking the delocalization of electrons between nuclei to the next...
