The most common charge for sulfur is -2.
The oxidation number of sulfur can vary depending on the compound. In general, sulfur has oxidation numbers ranging from -2 to +6. In common compounds like H2S (hydrogen sulfide), sulfur has an oxidation number of -2, while in compounds like SO2 (sulfur dioxide) its oxidation number is +4.
YES!!! Sulphur exhibits several allotropes. The Yellow allotrope is 'S8'. It is sometimes named as ' flowers of sulphur'. There are at least two other allotropes, they are red sulphur, and white sulphur, but these are less common. NB An ALLOTROPE is a different physical form of the same element.
"S8" refers to elemental sulfur in the form of an allotrope, known as sulfur (S) atoms bonded together to form a molecule with eight sulfur atoms. Hence, "S8" is a molecule.
The most common charge of sulfur is -2, as it typically gains two electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration similar to a noble gas. This allows sulfur to form compounds with metals, creating sulfides.
The common allotrope of sulfur is S8.
A diamond is an allotrope of carbon
Diamond, graphite and carbon black are the most common allotropes of CARBON
The most common charge for sulfur is -2.
Plastic sulfur is an amorphous allotrope of sulfur; it is plastic because the structure is polymeric.

Ozone is an allotrope of oxygen. It is represented as O3.
Sulfur is of course more common.
The most common ion formed by sulfur is the sulfide ion (S2-).
When you combine eight atoms of sulfur joined together in a ring, you get a molecule called cyclo-octasulfur or S8. This molecule is a common allotrope of sulfur and is known for its characteristic ring structure.
