action of dilute acid on a sulphide substance (warm if necessary)
Answers
Answer:
If you heat iron filings ans sulphur to a sufficiently high temperature you form iron sulphide
Fe+S→FeS
If you add HCl to this the following reaction occurs:
FeS+2HCl→FeCl2+H2S
H2S gas is given off and iron chloride is produced.
Both are chemical compounds.
Aim of the experiment : To identify the unknown substance by the addition of dilute sulphuric acid the given substance may be .
- A sulphide
- A carbonate or
- A metal
- A sulphite
Apparatus and Chemicals : Test tubes , test tube holder , bunsen burner , given unknown substance
- a sulphide
- a carbonate
- or a metal substance
and dilute sulphuric acid (H2SO4)
Procedure : Take A Pinch of unknown substance in a test tube . To it add a few drops of dilute sulphuric acid . Shake it . Warm it , if necessary in bunsen burner flame and note down the observations according to the observation table.
