Well, number of protons is easy. It's #'sulfur, Z = 16',# so there are 16 #'nucular protons'#.

Atomic Number Element Atomicity 1 Hydrogen 2 2 Helium: 1 3 Lithium: 1 4 Beryllium: 1 5 Boron: 1. 6 Carbon: 1 7 Nitrogen: 2 8 Oxygen: 2 9 Fluorine: 2 10 Neon: 1 11 Sodium: 1 12 Magnesium: 1 13 Aluminium: 1 14 Silicon: 1. 15 Phosphorus: 4 16 Sulphur: 8: 17 Chlorine: 2 18 Argon: 1 19 Potassium: 1 20 Calcium: 1 21 Scandium: 1 22 Titanium: 1 23 Vanadium: 1 24 Chromium: 1 25 Manganese: 1 26. Atomic mass of sulphur is 32 u (approx) and the atomic mass of oxygen is 16 u (approx). Since we have only 1 sulphur and 2 oxygen in SO2, Therefore atomic mass of SO2=(1×32)+(2×16)=64 u. The molecules formula of sulphur is given to be S8 (it Contains 8 atoms of sulphur). So, the molecular mass of sulphur molecule is 32 × 8 = 256 u. This means that 1 mole of sulphur molecules is equal to 256 grams. Now, 256 g of sulphur = 1 mole of sulphur molecules.

Sulfur is a abundant non metal that makes up 3% of the earth’s mass. It was discovered by Antoine Lavoisier in 1789 but in 1823 by the German Chemist Eilhard Mitscherlich obtained Sulfur crystals from cooling molten sulfur. Sulfur exists as allotropes (similar formulas but different structures) of a rhombic and monoclinic Sulphur crystals. Sulfur belongs to the chemical elements belonging to group 16 i.e. Chalogens family. Oxygen, tellurium, selenium, and polonium are other members of Group 16. This Group 16 is also known as Group VIA of the periodic table. The periodic table is an ordered arrangement of chemical elements in groups and periods to better understand their behaviors in the form of groups. Physical Properties of.

If there are 16 positively charged particles, there must be 16 negatively charged particles in the #'neutral'# element. We have #S^(2-)#, and thus there must be #18# electrons associated with the ion.

And neutrons for #'^33S#? Well, the electrons are along for the ride, and have zero rest mass. The mass of an atom, to a first approximation, is the number of massive, nuclear particles, i.e. the number of #'protons and neutrons'#. We have #16# nuclear protons, so there MUST BE #17##'neutrons'#, i.e.

#33_('the mass number')=16_('protons')+17_('neutrons')#.

Are you happy with this? If you think it is simple, it should be, but many students are unconvinced by this apparent simplcity.

From where did I get these numbers?
