Elements are distinguished based on their number of protons. Chlorine has exactly one proton more than sulfur. Since there cannot be fractions of protons, there can be no element between sulfur and chlorine on the Periodic Table.

Can a molecule be an element?

Yes, some of the nonmetals (hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, and the halogens) form diatomic molecules (H2, N2, O2, etc.). Sulfur forms S8 molecules, phosphorus can form P4 molecules, and the ever versatile element carbon can form C60 molecules among others.


Which is not a heavy metal Silver nitrate Mercurochrome chlorine merthiolate copper sulfate?

None of the materials listed is a heavy metal, because most of them are compounds, and only elements are ever heavy metals. The only one on the list that does not contain a heavy metal is chlorine, which is a nonmetallic element.


What element is responsible for the odor of rotten eggs?

Sulfur Have you ever smelled a real rotten egg? enzymes that break down the egg are not necessairally sulfur content. these enzymes occur naturally in the earth. these are the same enzymes that break down everything that is deteriorating. from eggs to animals. this is what makes the egg smell like sulfur. but the same enzymes make your underarms stink and a dead body rot yet they all have a distinctive smell. they are not all the same in fragrance.


Does chlorine have odour is it worse than wastewater?

If you have ever smelled laundry bleach, or been in a swimming pool and noticed a smell to the water- that is the smell of chlorine (in a fairly mild form). Pure chlorine gas is pale green, has a choking, burning smell, and is deadly to breathe. Whether it is "worse" than the smell of wastewater would depend on the purity of the chlorine you smell- the more pure, the worse the smell.

What happens to the particles when salt dissolves?

Salt is made up of a huge bunch of sodium atoms and chlorine atoms bonded to each other in such a way that for ever one sodium atom there is one chlorine atom. When salt is put in water the bonds between all the sodium and chlorine atoms are broken and the sodium atoms and chlorine atoms separate from each other. They are so small that the solution is now transparent, light can travel through it, and the atoms are too small to be seen by the naked eye. But if you then allow the water to evaporate away, gradually the bonds reform between the sodium and chlorine atoms and salt crystals are formed again.
