The best Lewis structures of SO₂ and O₃ include expanded valence structures such as O=S=O and O=O=O.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The given chemical formulas "SO₂" and "O₃" are not standard chemical notations, and the structures "O=S=O" and "O=O=O" do not represent expanded valence structures for any real molecules; "O=S=O" is the structure for sulfur dioxide (SO2), which does not have expanded valence, and "O=O=O" is not a stable or recognized molecule in chemistry.
