Question
Draw all possible resonance structures for SO2, S0,, and SO. Use the resonance structures to solve the problems below.
(a) Arrange these species in order of increasing S-O bond length (shortest bond first).
O SO
O SO
O SO2
O SO2
O so;²-
O SO
O So3?
O SO2
(b) Match each species with the number of covalent bonds predicted by Lewis structures to exist between an S atom and an O
atom bonded to this S atom. (Hint: Average the number of bonds between S and an attached oxygen atom in a particular
position using all of your resonance structures for the species that you are working on.)
SO: -Select-v bonds between S and 0.
-Select--- v bonds between S and O.
SO2:
Select-v bonds between S and O.
(c) Match each species with the correct formal charge on the central S atom.
SO:
Select- charge on S.
SO2:
Select--v charge on S.
SO32:-Select-vcharge on S.
(d) Match each species with the average formal charge on an outside oxygen atom predicted by Lewis structures.
so: -Select-vaverage charge on outside O atom.
SO2:--Select--- ♥ average charge on outside O atom.
So,2: -Select-average charge on outside O atom.
