Sulfur is in period 3 and group 16 (6A).
In group 6A, oxygen is at the top and sulfur is below oxygen. Ionization energy decreases going down a group. groups run vertically
Any of the elements in group 6A would qualify eg Oxygen (O), sulfur (S) etc.. Theirs many answers on the web that tell you diferently but this is correct as it came streight out of my chemistry book! Goodluck!!
Halogens
Do you own CA work!!
Sulfur is in period 3 and group 16 (6A).
Sulfur is part of column 16 or group 6A because, all elements in group 6A have 6 valence electrons. Sulfur has 6 valence electrons.
The Group 6A elements are oxygen, sulfur, selenium, tellurium and polonium. The number of valence electrons in Group 6A is 6.
nitrogen
Magnesium sulfide (MgS) is formed by the reaction of magnesium with sulfur.
Group 16 (group 6A)
In group 6A, oxygen is at the top and sulfur is below oxygen. Ionization energy decreases going down a group. groups run vertically
they are in the same group "6a" because they have the same number of Valence electrons
Sulfur is in the 16th group/family on the Periodic Table which is called Chalcogen.
because it belongs in group 6 of the periodic table. To be able to have a full outer shell of 8, it will accept 2 electrons
group 6A
Sulfur is a non metal. It accepts two electrons to form the stable sulfide ion. Therefore it is in the group 6A; group 16 according to modern notation.Sulfur is a non metal. It is in the 16th period of the periodic table. It has 6 electrons in its outermost energy level.sulfur is present in group-16. Its atomic number is 16. It has 6 valence electrons.
