Solution

Sulfur is a chemical element with the symbol S and atomic number 16. Under normal conditions, sulfur atoms form cyclic octatomic molecules with a chemical formula $S_{8}$ .
Molar mass of S atom=32g/mol
Hence, molar mass of Sulphur molecule $(S_{8})$ is:
$8 \times 32 m o l / g = 256 m o l / g$
