SO3 for the formal charges, we have: for the single-bonded oxygens F.C. = 6 - [1/2(2) + 6] = -1 for the double-bonded oxygen F.C. = 6 - [1/2(4) + 4] = 0 for the sulfur F.C. = 6 - [1/2(8) + 0] = 2 Again, the formal charges add to zero. The oxidation numbers of O and S are -2 and +6, respectively. Note the three resonance forms!
