smita87: please give complete answer
debashis72: ummm u mean explanation??
smita87: ya
smita87: are you explaining it
debashis72: the electronic configuration of sulohur is (2,8,6)
debashis72: valence electrons= electrons in outermost shell so its 6
debashis72: valency=8-6=2
debashis72: -2 since it ia non metallic
debashis72: it is non metallic because it is in p block elements
