When nitric acid $\left( HNO _{3}\right)$ reacts with nitric oxide (NO), $NO _{2}$ gas is released which oxidises $H _{2} S$ into sulphur.
The reactions are as follows :
$2 HNO _{3}+ NO \longrightarrow H _{2} O +3 NO _{2} $$NO _{2}+ H _{2} S \longrightarrow H _{2} O + S + NO$
P block elements are those in which the last electron enters any of the three p-orbitals of their respective shells. Since a p-subshell has three degenerate p-orbitals each of which can accommodate two electrons, therefore in all there are six groups of p-block elements.
P block elements are shiny and usually a good conductor of electricity and heat as they have a tendency to lose an electron. You will find some amazing properties of elements in a P-block element like gallium. It’s a metal that can melt in the palm of your hand. Silicon is also one of the most important metalloids of the p-block group as it is an important component of glass.
