Consider the sulfur trioxide SO3 molecule What is the centra

Consider the sulfur trioxide (SO3) molecule. What is the central atom? Enter its chemical symbol. How many lone pairs are around the central atom?I What is the ideal angle between the sulfur-oxygen bonds? Compared to the ideal angle, you would expect the actual angle between the sulfur-oxygen bonds to be V (choose one) about the same bigger smaller

Solution

Ans 1 : Central atom is sulphur. S is the symbol.

Ans 2 : Zero lone pairs around the sulphur.

Ans 3 : 120 ^o.

Ans 4: about the same.
