Iron sulfide is not a metal. It is a chemical compound with the appearance of a metal, but it does not have some of the characteristics of a metal. For example, it does not conduct electricity.

Iron is a metal because it is giant metallic structure and has all properties of a metal

Sulfur is not a metal because it is a giant molecular structure and has all properties of a non-metal

No iron sulphide isn't on the Periodic Table. This is because in order for something to be on the periodic table, it needs to be made up of just one type of atom. Something just made up of one type of atom is called an element. The periodic table is The Periodic Table Of Elements, so since iron sulphide is not an element, it cannot be on it.

Iron sulphide is made up of two elements; iron and sulfur. Iron sulphide can also be written as FeS (Fe is iron and S is sulfur).
