OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

sam (.sam.):

No, why do you say its sp2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because im looking for the hybridization of the central atom(if any) of S2. and hybridization is based on the steric number

OpenStudy (anonymous):

isnt the steric number 3? because there are two lone pairs attached and one atom attached?

sam (.sam.):

\(3s^23p^4\) |dw:1382937724403:dw|
