#17, SO2 is polar and also has a dipole-dipole bond. Oxygen is more electronegative, so the electrons in the bond between sulfur and oxygen are closer to the oxygen. This creates a partial negative charge on the oxygen, thus making it a polar molecule.

Formal Charge explanation needed
ReplyDeleteAnd elaborate on Intermolecular Forces ( strongest to weakest?)
