My question is:
Is this the same as "solfuro di carbonio" = carbon disulphide? (is there a rule for using disulphide as opposed to disulfide?
The two terms appear in the same sentence - which is why I have the doubt.
Thanks all!

: carbon disulfide/disulphide, but not sulfide/sulphide. Molecular compounds need number prefixes.
