Detailed Solution

SO3-2 ion is Pyramidal

No.of\; electron\; pairs\; around\; 'S' =\frac{1}{2}(V+M-C+A)

                                                                      

=\frac{1}{2}(6+0-0+2)=4

Hybridisation of Sulphur is  sp3   (Option (3) is correct)

No.of bond pairs = Attached atoms to central atom = 3

\therefore

No.of lonepairs = Electronpairs - Bond pairs = 4-3 =1

Thus the central atom 'S' in Sulphite ion has

3 bond pairs + 1 lone pair around it

According to VSEPR theory

A bond pair can be single bond pair (or) double bond pair (or) triple bond pair

Oxidation state of 'S' in SO3-2 = +4

Total bonds =4

Attached atoms = σ bonds = 3 ;

π bonds=4-3=1 ;

The structure of SO3-2 will be
