Draw the hybridization and bonding scheme for {eq}SOCl_2 {/eq} with the double bond resonance structure.
Question:
Draw the hybridization and bonding scheme for {eq}SOCl_2 {/eq} with the double bond resonance structure.
Orbital Hybridization:
Small atoms belonging to the second and third periods of the periodic table have smaller orbital lobes due to which their orbitals have a small extent of overlapping.
To overcome this problem, they undergo orbital hybridization that forms a new set of orbitals with larger lobes.
The geometry of the molecule depends on the hybridization of the central atom.
