Sulfur and nitrogen are two elements that are located in group 16 and group 15 respectively. Therefore their chemical and physical properties are entirely different from one another.
Oxygen is a gas, sulphur is a solid. Oxygen has 8 protons and 8 electrons, sulphur has 16 of each.

Sulphur and sulfur are alternate spellings. Sulphur is more popular in Great Britain. It's similar to the difference between Colour and Color, except that sulphur is clearly and unambiguously wrong, as determined by IUPAC.Not that IUPAC always gets it right... "aluminium" indeed... but at least they're definitive.
The single most important difference is the # of protons each has in the nucleus.
Both Carbon and Sulphur have an electronegativity value of 2.5
Ammonia is NH3 (i.e. consists of nitrogen and hydrogen as its constituents) whereas Sulphur dioxide is SO2 i.e it has sulphur and oxygen as its constituents. The chemical and physical properties are also quite different.
is there a chemical difference between the solid and liquid states of nitrogen
The difference between sulphur dioxide and sulphur trioxide is that there are 2 molecules of oxygen present in sulphur dioxide (SO2) and there are 3 molecules of oxygen are present in sulphur trioxide (SO3).
Oxygen is a gas, sulphur is a solid. Oxygen has 8 protons and 8 electrons, sulphur has 16 of each.

Free nitrogen is in the air but fixed nitrogen is in the soil.
Plants cannot make protein from pure carbohydrate, because proteins contain nitrogen and sometimes sulphur. They get the nitrogen which they need from the nitrates in the soil. They get the sulphur from sulphates in the soil.
