Polonium is a very rare chemical element accompanying uranium in ores (probably in the form of an oxide).
Natural polonium exist probable as a compound (as PoPb) but this hypothesis was not surely confirmed up today.
Polonium is a metalloid element and it can form both ionic and covalent bonds. In general, polonium tends to form covalent bonds with nonmetals, and can also form ionic bonds with highly electronegative elements.
Polonium and sulfur are not similar. Polonium is a radioactive metal with toxic properties, while sulfur is a nonmetal element that is commonly found in nature. They have very different chemical and physical properties.
When carbon is mixed with polonium, the resulting compound would likely be a polonium carbide. However, due to polonium's highly radioactive nature, handling or mixing it with other elements is extremely dangerous and should not be attempted.
Polonium primarily combines with elements from groups 15 and 16 on the periodic table, such as oxygen, sulfur, and selenium. It can form compounds such as polonium oxide and polonium sulfide. Additionally, polonium can also interact with metals like bismuth to form alloys.
The structure of polonium alpha form is cubic.The structure of polonium beta form is rhombohedral.

The majority of the chemical elements can form compounds with polonium.
Impossible to find pure polonium; it is necessary to separate polonium from other radioisotopes.
Mercury do not occur in combine state (i.e. it occur in free state) and in liquid form. It is the only metal who occur in liquid form.
This isotope is 210Po, an alpha emitter with a half life of 138,376 days.
Only Mercury occurs in nature as a liquid in its elemental state. Bromine is also a liquid element, but does not occur in its elemental form in nature.
Polonium is a metalloid element and it can form both ionic and covalent bonds. In general, polonium tends to form covalent bonds with nonmetals, and can also form ionic bonds with highly electronegative elements.
Polonium is a radioactive element discovered by Pierre and Marie Curie by boiling Pitchblende with water and chemicals.
Polonium exists in two metallic allotropes (forms). The alpha form has a simple cubic crystal structure, and the beta form is rhombohedral.
