The ionic compound ZnS is zinc sulfide.
The formula for the ionic compound formed between zinc and sulfur is ZnS, which is known as zinc sulfide. In this compound, zinc has a 2+ charge (Zn2+) and sulfur has a 2- charge (S2-), so they combine in a 1:1 ratio to form a neutral compound.
ZnS is a covalent crystal. Although composed of positively charged zinc ions and negatively charged sulfur ions, the bonding within ZnS is primarily covalent due to the sharing of electron pairs between the zinc and sulfur atoms.
Zinc sulfide
a). Sulfur to form zinc sulfide (ZnS) b). Oxygen to form zinc oxide (ZnO)
ZnS is correct for Zinc Sulphide (I refuse to spell sulphur with an f) - Zn likes to form +2 ions losing the 2 4s electrons to form the +2 oxidation state, and S likes to either form -2 or +6 oxidation states, thus forming ZnS

Zinc sulfide
ZnS, or zinc sulfide, is classified as a binary ionic compound. It consists of zinc ions (Zn²⁺) and sulfide ions (S²⁻) that combine to form a neutral compound. ZnS is commonly found in nature as the mineral sphalerite and is used in various applications, including as a phosphor in fluorescent lights and in the production of pigments.
Assuming you mean ZnS, it's a compound - Zinc sulfide.
