How many electrons does sulfur gain or lose to become stable?
Sulfur gains 2 electrons to become stable.
Color sulfur after heat or burn?
Sulfur or sulphur turns a golden brown as the yellow powder starts to melt when heated. The longer the heating, the darker the bubbling sulfur or sulphur will become.
Would sulfur become a positive ion before bonding yes or no?
yes
Can you become addicted to sulfur?
I'm going to say no, for two reasons: # Sulfur is a vital nutrient. If you managed to eliminate it completely from your diet you'd die. # What in the name of Antoine Lavoisier could you possibly be doing with it in order to become "addicted"?

Why did Hershey and Chase grow viruses in cultures that contained both radioactive Sulfur. What might have happened if they had used only one radioactive substance.?
Radioactive sulfur and phosphorous. Proteins contain sulfur, but no phosphorous. Nucleic acids contain phosphorous, but no sulfur. The T even phages they used were nucleic acid enclosed in a capsid of protein. So, to label them radioactively told them by experiment which substance, nucleic acid or protein, was the generic material. To only use one radioactive substance would have been useless in telling which was the genetic material. Google Hersey and Chase for more detail.
How does a person become radioactive?
