laboratory prepared method of iron III sulphide
Answers
Explanation:
Preparation and properties Fe2S3 is prepared by addition of refrigerated iron(III) chloride solution to also cooled sodium sulfide solution. It is also produced as a side-product of desulfurization of fuel gasses. The gas is pumped through a container of hydrated iron(III) oxide, which combines with hydrogen sulfide.
Solubility in water: very slightly soluble
Chemical formula: Fe2S3
Molar mass: 207.90 g/mol
Melting point: decomposition

Answer:
Fe2S3 is prepared by addition of refrigerated iron(III) chloride solution to also cooled sodium sulfide solution.[citation needed]
2 FeCl3 + 3 Na2S → Fe2S3↓ + 6 NaCl

Fe
2O
3(s) + H
2O(l) + 3 H
2S(g) → Fe
2S
3(s) + 6 H
2O(l)
Reactions Edit
Iron(III) sulfide decays at a temperature over 20 °C into iron(II) sulfide (FeS) and elemental sulfur:[2]
Fe2S3 → 2 FeS + S↓
With hydrochloric acid it decays according to the following reaction equation:[3]
Fe2S3 + 4 HCl → 2 FeCl2 + 2 H2S↑ + S↓
