This is because sulphur (in sulphur dioxide) has a lone pair of electrons, whereas carbon does not, therefore that lone pair repels the bonded pairs and so they are differently shaped molecules.

Does CO2 and SO2 have the same empirical formula?
No, Compounds with the same empirical formula have the same elements in the same ratio. SO2 and CO2 contain different elements. SO2 is a compound of sulfur and oxygen while CO2 is a compound of carbon and oxygen.
Why does co2 diffuse faster than so2?
CO2 has lesser molecular mass than SO2 also Co2 is less reactive than SO2:)
Are SO2 and CO2 isoelectronic?
No.
Which has the weakest interaction CO2 NO2 SO2 or H2S?
CO2
How do you balance the equation for CS2 plus O2 into CO2 plus SO2?
Cs2 + 3o2 ------->>> co2 + 2so2

Why does co2 diffuse faster than so2?
CO2 has lesser molecular mass than SO2 also Co2 is less reactive than SO2:)
Do CO2 and so2 have the same geometry?
No, the geometry of CO2 is linear while the geometry of SO2 is bent.
Are SO2 and CO2 isoelectronic?
No.
What is the balanced equation for sulfur dioxide when added to a container of carnon dioxide?
CO2 + SO2 --> CO2 + SO2 There is no reaction.
