Sulfur is the 16th element in the periodic table and has a symbol of S and atomic number of 16. It has an atomic weight of 32.060 and a mass number of 32. Sulfur has sixteen protons and sixteen neutrons in its nucleus, and sixteen electrons in three shells.
Sulfur (also spelled sulphur in British English) is a chemical element; it has symbol S and atomic number 16. It is abundant, multivalent and nonmetallic. Under normal conditions, sulfur atoms form cyclic octatomic molecules with the chemical formula S 8. Elemental sulfur is a bright yellow, crystalline solid at room temperature.
Sulfur is a chemical element with atomic number 16 which means there are 16 protons in its nucleus. Total number of protons in the nucleus is called the atomic number of the atom and is given the symbol Z. The total electrical charge of the nucleus is therefore +Ze, where e (elementary charge) equals to 1,602 x 10-19 coulombs.
