  2. Sulfur dioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfur_dioxide

    Two resonance structures of sulfur dioxide. The sulfur–oxygen bond has a bond order of 1.5. There is support for this simple approach that does not invoke d orbital participation. [11] In terms of electron-counting formalism, the sulfur atom has an oxidation state of +4 and a formal charge of +1.

  3. Formal charge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formal_charge

    Formal charges in ozone and the nitrate anion. In chemistry, a formal charge (F.C. or q*), in the covalent view of chemical bonding, is the hypothetical charge assigned to an atom in a molecule, assuming that electrons in all chemical bonds are shared equally between atoms, regardless of relative electronegativity.

  4. Lewis structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_structure

    The formal charge of an atom is computed as the difference between the number of valence electrons that a neutral atom would have and the number of electrons that belong to it in the Lewis structure. Electrons in covalent bonds are split equally between the atoms involved in the bond.

  5. SO2 - Wikipedia

    SO2, a staff officer of the second class, often a commissioned officer of lieutenant commander, major or squadron leader rank SO2, a London Metropolitan Police Specialist Operations command division Special Operations 2 – Operational, of the British, World War II Special Operations Executive

  6. Pauling's principle of electroneutrality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pauling's_principle_of...

    There are two possible structures for hydrogen cyanide, HCN and CNH, differing only as to the position of the hydrogen atom. The structure with hydrogen attached to nitrogen, CNH, leads to formal charges of -1 on carbon and +1 on nitrogen, which would be partially compensated for by the electronegativity of nitrogen and Pauling calculated the net charges on H, N and C as -0.79, +0.75 and +0.04 ...

  7. Bond order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond_order

    In chemistry, bond order is a formal measure of the multiplicity of a covalent bond between two atoms. As introduced by Gerhard Herzberg, [1] building off of work by R. S. Mulliken and Friedrich Hund, bond order is defined as the difference between the numbers of electron pairs in bonding and antibonding molecular orbitals.

  8. Metal sulfur dioxide complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_sulfur_dioxide_complex

    The pathway for the insertion of SO 2 into metal alkyl bond begins with attack of the alkyl nucleophile on the sulfur centre in SO 2. The "insertion" proceed the sulfur dioxide between the metal and the alkyl ligand leads to the O, O'-sulphinate. Alternatively an O-sulphinate can arise.

  9. Carbon suboxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_suboxide

    Carbon suboxide, or tricarbon dioxide, is an organic, oxygen-containing chemical compound with formula C 3 O 2 and structure O=C=C=C=O. Its four cumulative double bonds make it a cumulene . It is one of the stable members of the series of linear oxocarbons O=C n =O , which also includes carbon dioxide ( CO 2 ) and pentacarbon dioxide ( C 5 O 2 ).
