Because it is 0.0384% of the Earth's crust, sulfur is the seventeenth most abundant element following strontium. Sulfur also takes on many forms, which include elemental sulfur, organo-sulfur compounds in oil and coal, H2S(g) in natural gas, and mineral sulfides and sulfates.

Melting and boiling points rise across the three metals because of the increasing number of electrons which each atom can contribute to the delocalized "sea of electrons". The atoms also get smaller and have more protons as you go from sodium to magnesium to aluminum.

It covers the process of creating sulfuric acid through the oxidation of sulfur and provides an example of balancing redox reactions with iron (II) oxide and carbon monoxide, using the oxidation-number-change method. The setting for this balancing act is a blast furnace, highlighting the importance of adjusting coefficients to achieve a balanced reaction.
