Interpretation: It should be determined for the S atom which exceeds the Octet configuration in the following molecule.
Concept Introduction:
Octet Rule:
Thus is a chemical rule of thumb that reflects observation that atoms of main – group elements tend to combine in such a way that each atom has eight electrons in its valence shell.
Resonance structures:
A molecule or ion which show more than structure but none of them are accurately correct show the known property of that molecule, and can lie between the canonical structure is known as resonance or canonical or contributing structure.
Polarity is the separation of electric charge leading to a molecule or its chemical groups having an electric dipole or multiple moments.
Polar molecule must contain polar bond due to presence of electronegativity dereference between the bonded atoms.
