Make S2Cl2
You'll get sulphur crystals just by leaving the bottle open.

Beautiful crystals Hegi. I have 2.5kg of 99.5% sulfur and half a gallon of toluene, so I guess I don't have any excuse not to try this

Do I remember correctly that sulfur dissolves in liquid ammonia? I've always wanted to try this.
Any other SF Bay chemists?

Yes. I've used toluene to purify sulphur by recrystallisation. I Wasn't particularly aiming for large crystals but I have attached a picture of my
purified sulphur.
If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate.

This is very nice! I have to do it at home, but I do not have toluene unfortunately. I just had a very-very bad idea about this. What do you think
would happen if we used this method for something like Yellow Powder? I am too afraid of KABOOOOOOM to do it.
