Carbon forms molecular compounds with some elements from Group 16. Two of these compounds are carbon dioxide, CO2, and carbon disulfide, CS2.

Carbon dioxide is a colorless, odorless gas at room temperature. At standard temperature and pressure, CO2 (s) changes directly to CO2 (g).

Carbon disulfide is formed by a direct reaction of carbon and sulfur. At room temperature, CS2 is a colorless liquid with an offensive odor. Carbon disulfide vapors are flammable.

59 Identify one physical property and one chemical property of CS2. [1]
