Diatomic.<\/p>\n<p>Sulfur is a chemical element with the symbol S and atomic number 16. It is a non-metallic, multivalent, and lustrous pale yellow, odorless, tasteless, and very brittle chemical element. It occurs naturally in elemental form as the mineral sulfur, or as an impurity in other minerals, such as pyrite and cinnabar. Elemental sulfur is a bright yellow, crystalline solid at standard temperature and pressure. It is odorless and has a slightly bitter taste. Sulfur is a non-metal and is not very reactive. It is insoluble in water, but soluble in carbon disulfide. Sulfur is an important element in many compounds, including sulfuric acid, sulfur dioxide, and sulfurous acid. It is also used in the production of gunpowder, matches, and fireworks.<\/p>\n<p>The atomicity of an element is the number of atoms that make up a molecule of that element. The atomicity of sulfur is 2, which means that a molecule of sulfur contains 2 atoms of <div class=\"youtube-subscribe-container\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCNHT8lW-JmLC68rjBfZhdkg?sub_confirmation=1\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"youtube-subscribe-button\">\r\n            <span class=\"youtube-icon\">\r\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 576 512\">\r\n                    <path d=\"M549.7 124.1c-6.3-23.7-24.8-42.3-48.3-48.6C458.8 64 288 64 288 64S117.2 64 74.6 75.5c-23.5 6.3-42 24.9-48.3 48.6-11.4 42.9-11.4 132.3-11.4 132.3s0 89.4 11.4 132.3c6.3 23.7 24.8 41.5 48.3 47.8C117.2 448 288 448 288 448s170.8 0 213.4-11.5c23.5-6.3 42-24.2 48.3-47.8 11.4-42.9 11.4-132.3 11.4-132.3s0-89.4-11.4-132.3zm-317.5 213.5V175.2l142.7 81.2-142.7 81.2z\"\/>\r\n                <\/svg>\r\n            <\/span>\r\n            Subscribe on YouTube\r\n        <\/a>\r\n    <\/div> sulfur.
