Which of the following structures is the most preferred and hence of lowest energy for SO3?


D.

Formal charges help in selection of the lowest energy structure from a number of possible Lewis structures for a given species. Generally the lowest energy structure is the one with the smallest formal charges on the atoms.
Formal charge on an atom
= total no. of valence electrons - non-bonding electrons - 12× bonding electrons. 

For Lewis structure of SO3

                        

Formal charge on S       = 6-0-12×12=0Formal charge on three O atoms     = 6-4-12×4=0
