Sulfur is a metal element. There are 16 electrons in a single atom.
The chemical formula for sulphide is S^2-. It is composed of one sulfur atom bonded to two electrons, giving it a -2 charge.
There are two atoms.Formula for hydrogen sulphide is H2S.

The charge that sulphide has will depend in its state. Sulphide in itself does not have any charge but sulphide ion has a negative charge.
nitrogen and sulphide
The formula for Lead Sulfide (or Lead Sulphide) is either: PbS for Lead(II) Sulphide, or PbS2 for Lead(IV) Sulphide.
well, iron sulphide is a compound so tin sulphide proberly is.
S^-22S
No. Hydrogen sulphide is covalent.
Argon (Ar) would have the same number of electrons as S2-. Argon has 18 electrons, while S2- has 18 electrons as well, after gaining two electrons to achieve a full octet like noble gas configuration.
Yes, sulfur can give away electrons when forming ionic bonds with elements that have a greater tendency to attract electrons. For example, in the compound sodium sulfide (Na2S), sulfur gives away electrons to sodium to form an ionic bond.
