Can sulfur and strontium for ionic compound?

Yes, sulfur and strontium can form an ionic compound. When sulfur gains two electrons to achieve a full valence shell, it forms a sulfide ion (S^2-). Strontium, being a metal, easily loses two electrons to form a strontium ion (Sr^2+). These ions attract each other through ionic bonds, creating the ionic compound strontium sulfide (SrS).


What ion charge does strontium have?

A strontium ion has a charge of +2


How many electrons will strontium gain or lose when forming an ion?

Strontium, element with atomic number 38, will lose 2 electrons to form a stable ion as it tends to lose electrons to attain a noble gas configuration.
