Answer 2

• A collection of atoms of Sulfur

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll assume the notation is written as
`S_(8)`. A subscript after an element symbol represent the number of individual atoms of the symbol. In this case
`S_(8)` is telling us we have 8 sulfur atoms that are somehow connected to each other. That is in contrast with 8S, which means we have 8 different sulfur atoms. A chemical formaula, such as
`CH_(4)` tells us we have a molecule containing 1 carbon atom and 4 hydrogen atoms.
