It is difficult to shape solid objects out of sulphur, which occurs as small crystals. It melts at quite a low temperature - the exact value depends on the allotrope - so wuld not be much use for cooking. It is also combustible and forms sulphur dioxide with its characteristic suffocating smell. Not something you would want in your food!

Why a saucepan can't be made from sulphur?
Sulphur is not suitable for making saucepans because it has a low melting point of 115.21°C. This means that it would melt at temperatures reached during normal cooking, rendering it unsuitable for cooking purposes. Additionally, sulphur is a brittle material, making it impractical for use in a saucepan that needs to withstand heat and provide durability.
Why is a saucepan a good conductor?
A saucepan is a good conductor because it is made of a material, such as aluminum or stainless steel, that allows heat to transfer quickly from the heat source to the contents of the pan. This results in even cooking and efficient heat distribution throughout the saucepan.
Is saucepan a compound?
Yes, "saucepan" is a compound word made up of the words "sauce" and "pan" combined to refer to a specific type of cooking vessel used for heating liquids or preparing sauces.
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).
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.
Why a saucepan can't be made from sulphur?

What is a nonreactive saucepan and how does it differ from a reactive saucepan?
A nonreactive saucepan is made of materials that do not react with acidic foods, such as stainless steel or glass. This prevents a metallic taste from developing in the food. In contrast, a reactive saucepan, made of materials like aluminum or copper, can react with acidic foods, altering their flavor and appearance.
How is sulphur dioxide made from sulphur?
Just by simple burning it: S + O2 --> SO2
Is a saucepan made of steel?
Yes, the majority of saucepans are made of steel. A saucepan can be made of copper, aluminum, or iron. There are also some companies that make heat resistant glass and ceramic sauce pans.
Why does a saucepan with a copper bottom work better than a saucepan made of steel?
Copper is a better conductor of heat than steel.
Is sulphur dioxide a CFC?
No, SO2 is an inorganic acid gas made from sulphur and oxygen. A CFC is a chlorofluorocarbon made from fluorine, carbon and chlorine.
Can sulphur powder be filtered?
No, sulphur powder cannot be filtered because it is a fine powder that will pass through filter paper along with the liquid. Instead, sulphur powder can be separated from a liquid by methods such as precipitation or sedimentation.
Is sulphur dioxide made of ionic compound?
No. sulphur dioxide has polar covalent bond and is a polar covalent compound.
Who fixes saucepans?
it might be an ironmonger 'cause' an saucepan is made from iron
Explain why saucepan handles is made of thermosetting plastics?
Thermoplastics can be reheated and reshaped, however Thermosetting plastics undergo a chemical change resulting in them becoming permanently rigid, i.e they cannot be reheated and reshaped.
What is copper sulphate made up of?
copper and sulphur
How is rubber made tougher?
Vulcanisation- addition of sulphur
