Yes, molten sulfur expands when heated due to the increase in thermal energy causing the sulfur molecules to move more rapidly and occupy a larger volume.
No, molten sulfur is typically a bright yellow color, not red. When sulfur is heated to its melting point it turns into a yellow liquid before solidifying again.
The three states of sulfur are solid (as a yellow crystal), liquid (molten sulfur), and gas (sulfur vapor).
Lava is actually just rock in its liquid form - it's not sulfur. If it were, you would know it because at the temperature of lava, it burns and produces the nasty-smelling gas sulfur dioxide. You'll start gagging and coughing from the smell when you get anywhere near a molten-sulfur flow.
Sulfur can expand its octet because it has empty d orbitals in its third energy level, allowing it to accommodate more than eight electrons in its valence shell.
Yes, sulfur can be used in the creation of pink glass. When sulfur is added in small amounts to molten glass, it can create a pinkish hue due to its interaction with other elements in the glass composition.
