Chemistry

Pluto was ruled not a planet anymore because it is a "dwarf  planet"

Apparently, the International Astronomical Union's (IAU) definition of a planet includes that a planet should be part of a body that would orbit the sun.  

According to the IAU, there are three criteria's that contribute to a planet being called a planet.

1. It is within orbit around the Sun.

2. It has a sufficient mass to assume a nearly round shape

and 3. It has "cleared the neighborhood" around it's orbit.

Pluto only so happens to meet 2 of these requirements, not including the third option.

Answer:

In august 2006 the international astronomical union (IAU) downgraded the status of Pluto to that of "Dwarf planet." this means that from now on only the rocky worlds of the inner solar system and the gas giants of the outer system will be designated.

Which of the following is a correct lewis structure for sulfur dioxide, so2?
pshichka [43]

The correct Lewis structure of SO2 is the Lewis structure that shows all the 12 valence electrons in the molecule.

A Lewis structure shows the number of valence electrons on the valence shell of all the atoms in a compound. The electrons are shown as dots around the symbol of each element or a dash to indicate shared electrons in a covalent bond.

Looking at the Lewis structure of SO2 attached to this answer, we can see the twelve valence electrons in the molecule and how they are distributed around each atom as shown.
