What would be the electron dot structure of a molecule of sulphur which is made up of eight atoms of sulphur? (Hint − the eight atoms of sulphur are joined together in the form of a ring.)

Explanation

The atomic number (Z) of sulphur is sixteen and its electric configuration is 2,8,6. the sulphur atom has six valence electrons the chemical formula of sulphur molecule is `S_8`.Each sulphur atom is linked to similaratoms on either sides by single covalent bonds and thus, completes its octet. the molecule is in the form of a ring also represented by crown shape.
