The valency of sulfur is typically 2, 4, or 6, depending on the compound it forms.
-1 valency
The valency of sodium in sodium sulfate is +1, while the valency of sulfate is -2. Therefore, the valency of sodium sulfate as a whole is +2.
S = +6 valency O = -2 valency
The valency of dioxonitrate (NO2-) is -1. Each oxygen atom in the dioxonitrate ion has a valency of -2, while the nitrogen atom has a valency of +3, resulting in an overall charge of -1 for the ion.
