Step-by-step solution

3 steps
  1. Analyze the properties of sulfur.

    Sulfur is a non-metal element.

  2. Evaluate each option.

    • A. a good conductor of electricity. Non-metals, including sulfur, are generally poor conductors of electricity (insulators). Therefore, this statement is not a property of sulfur.
    • B. a yellow solid and insoluble in water. Sulfur is typically a yellow solid at room temperature and is known to be insoluble in water. This is a correct property.
    • C. found in large underground deposits. Sulfur occurs naturally in large underground deposits, often associated with volcanic activity or salt domes. This is a correct property.
    • D. made up of crown-shaped molecule. The most common and stable allotrope of sulfur, rhombic sulfur, consists of S8\text{S}_8 molecules, which have a characteristic crown shape. This is a correct property.
  3. Identify the statement that is not a property of sulfur.

    Based on the evaluation, sulfur is not a good conductor of electricity.

    The final answer is A\boxed{\text{A}}.
