Question

Regarding the structure of S O2 and S e O2 which of the following is true - (A) The gaseous S O2 and S e O2 have same V -shaped molecule both in solid and gas phase (B) At room temperature both S O2 and S e O2 are solids. (C) In the solid phase the structure of S O2 is V -shaped discrete molecule but S e O2 is cyclic trimeric (D) In solid phase the structure of S O2 is V -shaped discrete molecule but S e O2 has linear polymeric chain

The gaseous S O2 and solid S O2 both are V-shaped discrete molecule. S e O2 is solid at room temperature and solid S e O2 is polymerised by infinite chain. <img class="img-fluid question-image" alt="Solution" src="https://cdn.tardigrade.in/q/nta/c-trupj15ubzqc.png" />

Q. Regarding the structure of $S O_{2}$ and $S e O_{2}$ which of the following is true -

The gaseous $S O_{2}$ and $S e O_{2}$ have same $V$ -shaped molecule both in solid and gas phase

At room temperature both $S O_{2}$ and $S e O_{2}$ are solids.

In the solid phase the structure of $S O_{2}$ is $V$ -shaped discrete molecule but $S e O_{2}$ is cyclic trimeric

In solid phase the structure of $S O_{2}$ is $V$ -shaped discrete molecule but $S e O_{2}$ has linear polymeric chain

The gaseous $S O_{2}$ and solid $S O_{2}$ both are V-shaped discrete molecule. $S e O_{2}$ is solid at room temperature and solid $S e O_{2}$ is polymerised by infinite chain.
