These are formed when, after formation of the first atom, the pi-orbitals of Sulfur and Oxygen align and share another pair of electrons. This occurs between sulfur and both of the oxygen atoms, with each oxygen atom forming one pi-bond.
(2) three fewer valence electrons is your answer.
Answer:
36s^5
Explanation:
We have;
M2X3 (s)------> 2M^3+(aq) + 3X^2-(aq)
If [M^3+(aq)] = [X^2-(aq)] = s
We then have;
Ksp = (2s)^2 * (3s)^3
Ksp = 4s^2 * 9s^3
Ksp = 36s^5
Note that Ksp is known as the solubility product. It is an equilibrum equation that shows the solubility of a solute in water.
