What is the formal charge on the sulfur atom in so? use the periodic table as needed. express the formal charge numerically

I think the correct answer would be - 1. The formal charge on the sulfur atom is therefore 6 - (6 + 2/2) = - 1. Formal charge is equal to the valence electrons minus the nonbonding electrons minus one half of the bonding electrons. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
