Compounds of sulfur and selenium with nitrogen

• Dioxygen makes up 21% of the
Earth’s atmosphere and 47% of
the Earth’s crust is composed of
O-containing compounds (water,
limestone, silica, silicates).
• Sulfur occurs around volcanoes
and hot springs, iron pyrites
fool’s gold (FeS2), and other
minerals.
• Selenium and Tellurium are
relatively rare and occur in only
a few minerals
• Polonium is omitted because its
abundance is only 3 × 10−7 ppb,
giving a negative number on the
log scale.
