Because the central atom has two bonded regions (remember that single, double, and triple bonds all count as one charge cloud). In addition to the two bond regions, there is a lone pair of electrons on the central atom, which counts as the third charge cloud.

What is the charge on the top of a cloud in a thunderstorm?
The top of a cloud has a positive charge or protons
What happens to the ground directly below a storm cloud?
An equal and opposite charge to the charge at the cloud base is induced. As the cloud moves, this charge moves across the ground, staying under the centre of the cloud.
How many moles of SO2 is present in 0.45 grams of sulfur dioxide?
1 mole SO2 = 64.064g SO2 0.45g SO2 x 1mol SO2/64.064g SO2 = 0.0070 mole SO2
Is SO2 isoelectronic?
The question is somewhat flawed. Isoelectric means when two different atoms possess the same electron configuration - i.e. one has to be an ion. As an arbitrary example, H- and He would both be 1s2, and isoelectric. Sulfur and oxygen are not isoelectric, sulfur has a whole extra shell of electrons. If you simply mean, is SO2 a charge molecule? Then no, there is no nett charge on SO2. It is, however, a polar molecule, due to being bent (similar to water).
Is SO2 linear?
No, SO2 is bent.
What is the formula and charge of sulphide?
SO2
What is the formula and charge of sulfate?
SO2− 4 ( Charge is -2 )
What is the charge on the top of a cloud in a thunderstorm?
The top of a cloud has a positive charge or protons
What is the chemical name and the charge of so2?
Sulfur dioxide, a neutral molecule.
What is the charge on the cloud or shell of the atom?
The charge of an electron cloud is negative. The electron cloud is made up of electrons, and the electrons are negatively charged. The electron cloud will have a negative charge as well.
What happens to the ground directly below a storm cloud?
An equal and opposite charge to the charge at the cloud base is induced. As the cloud moves, this charge moves across the ground, staying under the centre of the cloud.
What is the electrical charge for the electron cloud?
Negative.-1 elemental charge = -1.6x10^-19 C
What are the three pieces to an atom?
Proton = positive charge Neutron = neutral charge Electron = negative charge Please note that the basic parts of an atom do not include only the protons, neutrons and electrons. The basic parts are the nucleus and electron cloud. the protons and neutrons are essentially in the nucleus and the electrons are in the cloud surrounding the nucleus
Atom are composed of at least three particlies called?
The atom is made up of a nucleus and an electron cloud. The nucleus contain protons (positive particles, p+) and neutrons (particles of no charge, n0). The electron cloud is made up of orbiting electron which possess a negative charge (e-).
What is the electron domain charge cloud geometry of ICl5?
The electron domain charge cloud geometry of ICI5 s usually positively charged. This is because the process involves the loss of electrons. The electron-domain charge-cloud geometry of ICl5 is octahedral.
How many moles of SO2 is present in 0.45 grams of sulfur dioxide?
1 mole SO2 = 64.064g SO2 0.45g SO2 x 1mol SO2/64.064g SO2 = 0.0070 mole SO2
Lighting is a form of what?
There are three [ 3 ] main types of lightning:Cloud to groundCloud to cloudIntercloudIn a clear calm atmosphere, electric charge is fairly uniform in the atmosphere. During a thunderstorm, due to the physical processes going on within and around a cloud, areas of the cloud build certain types of charge. The cloud to ground type of lightning, the most interesting and frightening, happens when a negative charge builds up in low levels of a cloud. The surface of the Earth is positively charged. Since these opposite charges attract, when the negative charge builds to a large enough point in the cloud to overcome air resistance, it rushes towards Earth's surface (stepped leader) and a positive charge rushes up from the ground to meet it. When these two charges meet, positive charge is transferred to the cloud, and a flash of lightning, visible to the human eye, is born.By: Kristhie I. Alcazar Hernandez ! :] ♥
