Oxygen can form $2 \mathrm{p} \pi-2 \mathrm{p} \pi$ multiple bond with itself due to its small size while sulphur cannot form multiple bond with itself as $3 \mathrm{p} \pi-3 \mathrm{p} \pi$ bond will be unstable due to large size of sulphur, but sulphur can form multiple bond with small size atom like $\mathrm{C}$ and $\mathrm{N}$.

$\text { eg. } \mathrm{S}=\mathrm{C}=\mathrm{S}$

$\mathrm{S}=\mathrm{C}=\mathrm{N} \leftrightarrow \mathrm{S}^{\odot}-\mathrm{C} \equiv{N}$
