if you remove two protons and two electrons from a sulfur atom (s), what new element is formed?

 to remove to protons from a sulfur atom, is like sying the sulfur atom has undergone an alpha decay,
let us put the equation fast
32S → 42H + 28Si
  therefore from the alpha decay equation the nuclide formed will be silicon-28
 the atomic number of the sulphur( parent nuclide has decreased by two while the mass number has decreased by four.
