Sulfur is a solid with 16 neutrons and is a non-metal.
The only element in nitrogen family with 16 neutrons is the element Phosphorus (symbol: P). However it is a solid at room temperature and not gas.
Oxygen is nonmetal because since oxygen isn't visable it's not solid so oxygen is nonmetal.
An element with 16 neutrons could be oxygen-16, which is a stable isotope of oxygen.
The atomic mass of an atom is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in its nucleus. Therefore, if an atom has 16 neutrons, its atomic mass would be the total of the protons and neutrons. For example, if the atom has 8 protons, the atomic mass would be 16 (neutrons) + 8 (protons) = 24.
There are several isotopes of Phosphorus (P), all of which have 15 protons. Only one stable isotope exists in nature, having 16 neutrons. 31P has 16 neutrons 32P has 17 neutrons (synthesized radioisotope) 33P has 18 neutrons (synthesized radioisotope)

Sulfur powder is a nonmetal. It is a chemical element with the atomic number 16 and is classified as a nonmetal on the periodic table.
16 neutrons and 16 protons
Sulfur typically has 16 neutrons.
Sulfur is classified as a nonmetal. It is a nonmetallic element found in group 16 of the periodic table.
Sulfur has 16 protons, 16 electrons and 16, 17, 18 or 20 neutrons ( the number of neutrons is different for each isotope).
An atom of sulfur has 16 protons and 16 electrons. Depending on the isotope, it can have anywhere from 16 to 20 neutrons.
Sulfur-32 has 16 protons, neutrons and electrons each.

Phosphorus and sulfur both have 16 neutrons.
There are 8 neutrons in an oxygen-16 atom. Oxygen has an atomic number of 8 and with an atomic mass of 16, it is simple to calculate the number of neutrons by subtracting the atomic number (8) from the atomic mass (16). The 16 - 8 = 8.
