I suck at chemistry (first post, sulfur)

and I want to learn, for realz, I want to not suck no more in a few months or years

but what about sulfur?
Get it elemental, under rocks and stuff, near volcanoes too, it’s plentiful

It forms funky cyclic octa-molecules S8. It’s bright yellow & crystalline
Solid sulphur crystal














Today we get most of sulfur from exhausted SO2, and purification of petroleum & natural gas that gives H2S

Both SO2 and H2S can give sulfur in an organic solvent, monoethanolamine (MEA)

Why u need sulfur tho?
