Best Answer

what you've got there is a compound.

looks like 2 units of cesium and one sulfur.

A.K.A. Cesium Sulfide, group 16A is Oxygen, that whole group ends with -ide.

There is an element on the Periodic Table called "Carbon" with the symbol ' C ',

another element called "Sulfur" with the symbol ' S ', and yet another element

called 'Cesium' with the symbol ' Cs '. You may be thinking of one or more of these.

But that ' 2 ' in the question is a problem. It indicates either a molecule composed

of two atoms of ' CS ', or else the compound called "carbon disulfide", a compound

whose molecule consists of one atom of 'C' and two atoms of 'S' and which smells

like repeatedly used and never washed athletic socks.

Neither of these would appear on the periodic table of the elements, simply because

the table is a table of elements, not their molecules or compounds.

This is the sulfide anion. It is one atom of the elemnt sulfur with two extra electrons (giving it the stable octet of the inert gas argon)

The "S" means sulfur, but the "2-" means you're dealing with a sulfide ion. This means a sulfur atom which has gained 2 electrons because it's about to bond with something else.
