Is sulphur an element or a compound or a homogeneous mixture or a heterogeneous mixture?

Sulphur is an element, shown in the Periodic Table as 'S'. It exists in numerous allotropic forms; yellow, red and white.. The ''yellow' allotrope is the commonest form of elemental sulphur. As the 'yellow' form it is sometimes and archaically known as ' 'yellow flowers of sulphur'. In this allotrope, eight(8) atoms of sulphur are combined in a 'twisted' ring, similar to cyclohexane.


Is sulphur dioxide a mixture a compound or an element?

Sulphur dioxide is a COMPOUND. It tis a combination of two oxygen atoms with a sulphur atom . Structurally it is shown as ' O=S=O'. (Very similar to carbon dioxide. Each oxygen atom is doubly covalently bonded to the sulphur atom. NB It is NOT a mixture, because mixtures have NO electronic bonding between atoms. NNB It is NOT an element. It is composed of TWO elements viz. sulphur and oxygen. The Periodic Table gives a list of all the elements. You will not find sulphur dioxide (SO2) listed,as it is a compound, but separately sulphur(S) and oxygen(O).
