Mind you, I am discussing what happens when you heat sulfur, not when you make it combine with other different types of matter.
sulfur is a base atomic element, and will not break down, it merely changes state. Yes by atomic bonding, it can also form into other states by chance or process, but we are only talking about applying heat in a beaker. although I had to look it up, they are three allotropic forms: orthorhombic, monoclinic and amorphous.
when you heat orthorhombic sulfur it changes state, and by cooling reverts back to its previous state, unless you cool it quickly. if you cool it quickly it becomes amorphous but over time will revert back to orthorhombic.
When heat is applied to powdered sulfur, it will melt and eventually vaporize. This process is called sublimation, where a solid substance bypasses the liquid phase and turns directly into a gas.
When heat is applied to the mixture of metal fillings and sulfur, a chemical reaction occurs. The heat provides the energy necessary for the atoms of the metal and sulfur to rearrange and form new chemical bonds, resulting in the formation of a new substance with different properties than the original components. This process is called a chemical change, where the original substances react to form different compounds.
The reaction of sulfur and oxygen to produce sulfur dioxide is called combination or synthesis.
Sulphur combines with oxygen to form sulphur dioxide. S + O2 -> SO2
Sulfur reacts with oxygen to form sulfur dioxide (SO2) or sulfur trioxide (SO3), depending on the conditions. These reactions are exothermic and release energy in the form of heat. Sulfur dioxide is a common byproduct of burning sulfur-containing compounds.

When iron and sulfur combine to form iron sulfide, a chemical change takes place. This reaction is characterized by the formation of a new substance with different properties from the original iron and sulfur, including a change in color and the release of energy in the form of heat.
You should not heat sulfur with a match in aluminum foil as it can react with aluminum to form aluminum sulfide, which can release toxic fumes.
As heat is applied to a substance, its density typically decreases. This is because the increase in temperature causes the molecules to move more rapidly and thus spread out, leading to a decrease in the density of the substance.
Forms the compound, iron sulfide.
no !
compound of iron
The iron and sulfur react to form the compound iron sulfide.
When heat is applied to a solid, its temperature rises until it reaches the melting point of the substance. As the heat application continues, the temperature remains constant at the melting point as all of the heat is consumed in changing the state of the substance from solid to liquid. It is only after the conversion to liquid is complete that the temperature of the substance again starts to rise as long as heat is still being applied.
No, that is a disproven belief. Heat is a form of energy.
