The S valence would be -1 when Fe(II) is 2+. In most cases sulfur has one negative and two possible positive valences: -2 and +4 or +6. So FeS2 is not a possible, or maybe a very rare, compound (Iron(II) persulfide?).

Is hellium element compound or a mixture?

First of all you have mispelled it as 'hellium' . It is 'HELIUM'. It is an element. It atomic No. is '2' , so therefore it is found in position number '2' in the Periodic Table, as 'He'. It is neither a compound nor a mixture. The chemical symbol for helium is 'He '. It's Atomic Mass is '4' It is compsed of 2 protons, 2 neutrons and two electrons. It is the MOST Noble(Inert) of all the elements. It does NOT react with anything. Therefore it exists 'monatomically' (single atoms). Its condensing point is 7 K ( - 266 oC) (Becomes a liquid) Its freezing point is 4 K . ( - 269 oC) (becomes a solid). The name 'helium' is from Classical Greece, and means 'from the Sun'(Helios), because two hydrogen atoms fuse together in the Sun , they form 'Helium'.
