Calculate the molar mass of sulfur.

Sulfur is a polyatomic molecule, made up of 8 atoms of sulfur. S₈ or sulfur exist in nature in 2 states namely – monoclinic sulphur and rhombic sulphur.

• The molar mass of a substance can be understood as the mass of 1 mole of any given substance.
• It is calculated by adding the masses of all atoms present in a molecule.

The atomic mass of sulfur atom = 32 u

The molar mass of rhombic sulphur, S₈ = 32 × 8 = 256g.

Therefore, the molar mass of sulfur (S₈) is 256g.
