Answer:

Properties of Sulphur

The following are the most common properties of Sulphur. We will look at its chemical and physical properties separately.

Physical Properties

Sulphur is yellow in colour.

It is insoluble in water. However, it is very soluble in toluene (methylbenzene) and carbon disulphide.

It is a non-metal and therefore, a poor conductor of electricity and heat.

At the point, when we consolidate Sulphur vapour, we get a fine powder, which shapes a pattern resembling a flower. This is the ‘Flower of Sulphur’.
