Two, like oxygen.

Sulphur dioxide (SO2) is the compound formed when sulphur reacts with oxygen.
The formula for sulphur IV oxide is SO2.
"sulphur+oxygen->sulphur oxide."Se + O2 under pressure renders SeO2 (selenium dioxide). "Comment on the fact that the analagous reaction between sulphur and oxygen, although extremely slow, gives a product with a different stoichiometry". Part 1A Inorganic Chemistry Paper, University of Oxford, 2008.So the paper suggeststhat sulphur dioxide is not the product of direct combination of sulphur and oxygen. Why is this? Is it contaminated with some SO3?I think it's actually sulphur dioxide rather than sulphur oxide as someone else suggested. If you look at the reaction of carbon and oxygen, it doesn't produce carbon oxide, but carbon dioxide. So therefore I think if:Carbon + oxygen --> carbon dioxideThen:Sulphur + oxygen --> Sulphur dioxide
The other name of sulphur is pirites .
Sulfur can exhibit a covalency number of 2, 4, or 6, depending on the molecule it is in. In H2S, sulfur has a covalency of 2, in SO2 it has a covalency of 4, and in SF6 it has a covalency of 6.
Covalency refers to the type of chemical bond formed when two atoms share one or more pairs of electrons. To determine the covalency of an atom, you can look at its valence electrons—specifically, how many additional electrons it needs to achieve a stable electron configuration, typically resembling that of a noble gas. Atoms with similar electronegativities tend to form covalent bonds, and the number of shared electron pairs corresponds to the covalency. For example, carbon, with four valence electrons, has a covalency of four, as it can form four covalent bonds.
wcovalency means the max number of electron an atom can share with others. nitrogen can share 5 but due to the absence of d orbital it can only share 4. therefore the actual covalency in 4.
Carbon typically forms covalent bonds with other elements, sharing electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. Each carbon atom can form up to four covalent bonds, resulting in a covalency of 4.

Yes. Sulphur is homogeneous.
They both have at least one sulphur atom
Sulphur expands when it solidifies Sulphur is bright yellow
When you burn sulphur with oxygen you create sulphur dioxide or sulphur trioxide.

Elemental sulphur is a solid at 30c
No one. Sulphur's already an atom.
