What is the chemical formula of lead II decasulfide?
Pb10S10 The prefix deca in decasulfide means that there are 10 sulfide ions in the formula, each with a 2- charge. So the total negative charge is 10 x 2-, which equals 20-. To balance the total sulfide charge, you need enough lead II ions to equal 20+, so that means 10 lead II ions, which equals a charge of 20+. This is not really the correct way to name this compound. It should just simply be lead II sulfide, and the proper formula would be PbS, which, if you look at the ratio of lead to sulfide ions, which is 10:10, the formula for lead II decasulfide should be reduced to PbS.
What is the name for this compound PbS?
lead(II) sulfide Sulfur has an oxidation number of 2. Cross then superscript S^2 down in front of lead and there ya go.
What is the formula of lead sulphide?
The formula of lead (II) sulphide is PbS whilst the formula of lead (IV) sulphide is PbS2. The formula is: PbS and the number of Solubility product constants is 3x10^-25 if you're interested;)

What is the the chemical formula for lead sulfide?
Lead(II) Sulfide = PbS Lead(IV) Sulfide = PbS2
What is the formula for lead(2) sulfide?
Lead Sulfide is PbS.
What are the chracteristics of lead sulfide?
Lead sulfide is a black solution. It is insoluble in water and is a precipitate. The principle of the lead acetate test is the formation of lead sulfide.
What is the formula for lead IV sulfide?
Lead IV Sulfide is PbS2
What is the name for this compound PbS?
lead(II) sulfide Sulfur has an oxidation number of 2. Cross then superscript S^2 down in front of lead and there ya go.
What is the symbol for lead sulfide?
Lead sulfide is chemically notated as Pb(CH3COO)2.
What is the name of the compound formula PbSO?
Pb (Lead) + S (Sulphur) -----> PbS (Lead Sulphide)
Is it true a molecule of lead sulfide contains one atom of lead?
Lead (II) sulfide would contain one atom of lead per formula unit. Actually, now that I think about it, so would lead (IV) sulfide.
What is the formula of lead sulphide?
The formula of lead (II) sulphide is PbS whilst the formula of lead (IV) sulphide is PbS2. The formula is: PbS and the number of Solubility product constants is 3x10^-25 if you're interested;)
