    The first choice is incorrect because oxygen has an electronegativity of 3.44 which is higher than Sulfur's 2.58. The second choice is incorrect; both oxygen and sulfur are nonmetals. The last choice is incorrect because both oxygen and sulfur can only take 2 bonds. Therefore, through elimination, the answer is the third choice: oxygen is better able to form π bonds than sulfur.
