    Answer is: mass of unused sulfur is 5.87 grams.

    Balanced chemical reaction: C + 2S → CS₂.

    m (C) = 12.0 g; mass of carbon.

    m (S) = 70.0 g; mass of sulfur.

    n (C) = m (C) : M (C).

    n (C) = 12 g : 12 g/mol.

    n (C) = 1 mol; amount of substance.

    n (S) = m (S) : M (S).

    n (S) = 70 g : 32.065 g/mol.

    n (S) = 2.183 mol.

    From chemical reaction: n (C) : n₁ (S) = 1 : 2.

    n₁ (S) = 1 mol · 2 = 2 mol.

    Δn (S) = n (S) - n₁ (S).

    Δn (S) = 2.183 mol - 2 mol.

    Δn (S) = 0.183 mol; amount of unused sulfur.

    Δm (S) = 0.183 mol · 32.065 g/mol.

    Δm (S) = 5.87 g.
