Explanation:

these r both allotropes of S having same chemical prop bt diff physical properties .rhombic S has crown shaped octahedral crystalsformed by 8 S atoms . it is stable tranparent or pale yellown soluble in organic solvents as CS2 , C6H6 ,CHCl3 etc

monoclinic S differ in packaging of S8 RINGS so has density different from rhombic S .

monoclinic S can b formed from rhombic S ar 95.6ºC n exist btw 95.6 to 119º C

Answer:

The key difference between rhombic and monoclinic sulphur is that the rhombic sulphur is the most stable allotropic form of sulphur that exists as rhombic octahedral crystals whereas the monoclinic sulphur exists as long, needle-shape prisms but, it is stable only at temperatures between 96◦C and 119◦C.

Sulphur, also spelt it as “sulfur”, is a chemical element having the chemical symbol S and atomic number 16. It is a nonmetal and occurs in nature in different allotropic forms. Furthermore, at room temperature, it is readily available as bright yellow colored crystals. The major sources of Sulphur include natural gas, extraction from beneath the earth’s crust and as byproducts of other chemical processes. Rhombic and monoclinic Sulphur are two allotropic forms; allotropes are the different forms of the same chemical element that exists in the same physical state, i.e. structural modifications. Not only the structure but also the method of preparation of these allotropes are also different from each other.
