What is likely to occur if sulfur forms an ionic bond with another element is <u>sulfur will accept electrons</u>
<u><em> explanation</em></u>
Ionic bond is formed when a metal react with a non metal.
Metal loses ( donate) electrons to form cation ( a positively charged ion) , while non metal accept (gain) electrons to form anion ( a negatively charged ion ).
Sulfur is a non metal therefore it accept electrons if it form an ionic bond with a metal. sulfur accept 2 electrons to form S2- ion
Sulfur will accept electrons. Sulfur want's to be perfect but it lacks Electrons so when it makes an Ionic bond it will take the Electrons instead of giving them away
