Selenium, the element immediately below sulfur in the same column of a wide form periodic table. (The element immediately above sulfur in the same column, oxygen, is the lightest element in the column, and these lightest elements in a column of main group elements often have chemical properties somewhat different from all the other elements in the column. Sulfur, for example, has a much lower electronegativity than oxygen, while the difference between electronegativities of selenium and sulfur is much less.)
