Draw the Lewis structure for H2SO4. Experimentally, it is known that the S-O bonds are shorter than the S-OH bonds. The likely explanation for this is Hint: Consider the number of bonded electrons in each bond.
A) the electrons in the S-OH bonds are not equally shared.
B) the sulfur atom is not as electronegative as the oxygen atom.
C) the hydrogen atom is weakly bonded to the other S atom.
D) there are no lone pairs on the hydrogen atom.
E) the S-O bond has a greater bond order than the S-OH bond.
