Why does oxygen have a higher energy than sulfur?
In group 6A, oxygen is at the top and sulfur is below oxygen. Ionization energy decreases going down a group. groups run vertically
Which has the smaller fourth ionization energy Sn or Sb?
Sn, look at the valence shell 5: 5s^23d^105p^6
What are the chemical properties of ST37 steel?
Carbon: <0,17 % Phosphorous and sulfur: < 0,o4 %
What is the smell when you blow a match out?
Sulfur dispersing in smoke form into the air.
What is the name for the compound p2s5?
P2S5 is Phosphorous Penta Sulphide. P = Phosphours S = Sulfur Its molecular weight is 222.28.

Does Sulfur has a lower ionization energy than chlorine?
no sulfur is practically a gas
Phosphorus sulfur and selenium which has the largest atom?
Phosphorous
Are sulfur and phosphorous molecule covalent?
Yes, they are covalent
Example of a non-metal?
Oxygen, carbon, sulfur, neon, hydrogen etc.
What is the first ionization energy of sulfur?
Firstly, you have to be familiar with the electron orbitals and how they fill. If you consider sulfur, you will notice that there are two electrons in its px orbital but only one in each of its py and pz orbitals. The two electrons in the px orbital are at different energies( one is higher than the other) and thus tend to repel each other. This repulsion causes the electrons to lose energy due to the fact that they are moving away from the nucleus and thus their attraction is lower. Therefore, the ionization energy decreases.
What materials are in matches?
phosphorous, sulfur,sulfide, potassium chlorate, gum, and starch.
Which has the smaller fourth ionization energy Sn or Sb?
Sn, look at the valence shell 5: 5s^23d^105p^6
What are the chemical properties of ST37 steel?
Carbon: <0,17 % Phosphorous and sulfur: < 0,o4 %
What type of bond does phosphorus and sulphur make?
Phosphorous and sulfur will form a covalent bond.
Are carbon nitrogen oxygen sulfur and phosphorous essential to life?
Yes, and Hydrogen too.
What is used to make matches and grenades?
It used to be sulfur or phosphorous in World War 2.
