Which one of the following compounds has \[s{{p}^{2}}\]hybridisation?

A)  \[C{{O}_{2}}\]                                  

B)  \[S{{O}_{2}}\]

C)  \[{{N}_{2}}O\]                                 

D)  \[~CO\]

Correct Answer: B

Solution :

                 In \[S{{O}_{2}}\]molecule, S is \[s{{p}^{2}}-\]hybridised \[S(16)=1{{s}^{2}},2{{s}^{2}},2{{p}^{6}},3{{s}^{2}},3{{p}^{4}}\]
