Question
### Determining the Equilibrium Temperature for Sulfur Allotropes

#### Objective
Utilize the standard enthalpy change (ΔH°) and standard entropy change (ΔS°) values to determine the temperature at which rhombic sulfur and monoclinic sulfur reach equilibrium at 1 atm pressure.

#### Reaction 
\[ \text{S (rhombic)} \rightleftharpoons \text{S (monoclinic)} \]

#### Required Calculation
The temperature at equilibrium can be estimated using the formula:

\[ T = \frac{\Delta H°}{\Delta S°} \]

Given the notation provided, the temperature can be calculated in Kelvin (K) and is represented as:

\[ \boxed{} \times 10^2 \text{ K} \]

#### Note
The result should be rounded to one significant figure as indicated.

Make use of relevant values of ΔH° and ΔS° in scientific literature or experimental data to perform the precise calculation.
