Draw the Lewis structure for {eq}SO_2 {/eq}. Determine its electron geometry, the number of non-bonding domains on the central atom, and the polarity of the molecule. Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory: VSEPR or...
180.0° for CO2) and polarity (dipole 2.03 Debye for SO2 vs. 0.00 for CO2). How these differences are reflected in the interactions between the two gases (SO2 and CO2) and NHC-cation complexes calls for a systematic study. Here, we tried to elucidate the cation effects on the ...
