(c) BO33

(b) SO32

(d) CO32

[2002]

Show Answer

Solution:

  1. (b) In SO32

OσπSσσσOO

S is sp3 hybridised, so

16S=1s22s22p63s23px13py13pz1sp3 hybridisation 3dxy1unhybride 

In ‘S’ unhybride d-orbital is present, which will involved in π bond formation with oxygen atom.

8O=1s22s22px22py12pz1

In oxygen two unpaired p-orbital is present in these one is involved in σ bond formation while other is used in π bond formation

Thus in SO32, p π and dπ orbitals are involved for pπdπ bonding.
