(i) List three common oxidation states for sulphur and give an example of a compound for each oxidation state. (ii) Define with examples what is meant by the "octet rule” and give two examples of main group compounds that disobey this rule. (iii) Using band theory, and including diagrams, explain the electrical conductivity in magnesium, silicon and diamond. (iv) Rationalise why CO2 is a colourless gas at room temperature; whereas SiO2 is a solid with a melting point about 1600°C.
