The lewis structure of which molecule requires resonance structures? a.) mgcl2b.) sio2c.) so2d.) ocl2

 C.) SO2

Explanation:  Sulfur Dioxide is the gaseous molecule which can show the resonance through lewis dot structure due to the presence of lone pairs of electrons present on all of the three atoms of the molecules. Moreover , Sulphur forms pie bond with the oxygen using p orbitals which forms a network of the conjugated system that help to elaborate the reason of the formation of the resonance structure.

Options (a), (b), and (d) cannot form resonating structures as they involve the formation of the chemical bonds through single sigma bond.

answer: option (b) is the correct answer.

explanation:

a covalent bond is formed by sharing of electrons. whereas polarity arises due to difference in electronegativity of two atoms.

therefore, more is the electronegativity of an atom which combines with the titanium, more readily it will induce a partial positive and negative charge.

thus, out of the given options fluorine is most electronegative and has an incomplete octet. therefore, it will readily combine with titanium to share the electrons and complete its octet.
