VII. Finding Similarities and Differences: O3 and OF2

Answer 1

O₃ (ozone) has resonance structures and is sp2 hybridized. It has a bent trigonal pyramidal molecular structure and is a polar molecule.

OF₂ does not have any resonance structures and is sp3 hybridized. It has a bent molecular geometry and is a polar molecule.

So, similarities are they are both polar molecules and both contain oxygen.

Differences are the hybridization and the molecular geometry.
