Question

how many covalent bonds does sulphur have ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

2

Explanation:

This is the ground state of sulphur. To form covalent bond, electrons must be shared. As it has 2 valence electrons, it can form 2 covalent bonds, just like oxygen. eg thiols (Me-SH) But, there is a twist. Sulphur has d orbitals which oxygen does not have. So it takes advantage of it and forms this.
