$SO_2$

Vedclass · Answer

(A) $1$. In $SO_2$,the central atom $S$ has one lone pair and two bond pairs (double bonds). The steric number is $1 + 2 = 3$,which corresponds to $sp^2$ hybridization.$2$. In $CH_4$,the central atom $C$ has four bond pairs. The steric number is $4$,which corresponds to $sp^3$ hybridization.$3$. In $NH_3$,the central atom $N$ has one lone pair and three bond pairs. The steric number is $1 + 3 = 4$,which corresponds to $sp^3$ hybridization.$4$. In $SO_4^{2-}$,the central atom $S$ has four bond pairs. The steric number is $4$,which corresponds to $sp^3$ hybridization.Therefore,$SO_2$ does not have $sp^3$ hybridization.
