The formula of magnesium sulphide is MgS, showing that a formula unit has one atom of each element. The gram Atomic Mass of magnesium is 24.305 and that of sulphur is 32.06. Therefore, when magnesium and sulphur are present in equal amounts by mass, sulphur is the limiting reactant. 1.0/32.06 or 0.031 moles of sulphur atoms are present. Therefore, the maximum amount of MgS that can result from reaction is 0.031 formula units of MgS. The gram formula mass of MgS is 56.365, so that 0.031 formula units of MgS will have a mass of 1.7 grams, to the justified number of significant digits.

What compound is made up of Cobalt sulphur oxygen?
cobalt sulphide
Is a molecule of hydrogen sulphide made up of 1 hydrogen atom and 2 sulphur atoms?
No, 2 Hydrogen, 1 Sulphur. H2S
Is iron sulphide made by mixing iron and sulphur together?
Yes, the reaction is possible when the mixture is heated.
Is magnesium an element or compound?
Magnesium is an element.it is a compound as it is made up of two elements
Is sulphur dioxide made of ionic compound?
No. sulphur dioxide has polar covalent bond and is a polar covalent compound.
What compounds are in MgS?
MgS IS a compound!!!! I think you mean , what elemental atoms are in 'MgS'. They are magnesium (Mg) and sulphur (S). MgS is the compound magnesium sulphide.
What compound is made up of Cobalt sulphur oxygen?
cobalt sulphide
What elements made up lead sulphide?
Lead and Sulphur =)! Hope I helped! Y
How many elements are they in iron sulphide?
Iron sulphide (FeS) is made of two elements, viz. Iron(Fe) & Sulphur(S).
Is a molecule of hydrogen sulphide made up of 1 hydrogen atom and 2 sulphur atoms?
No, 2 Hydrogen, 1 Sulphur. H2S
Why there is no substance formed when sulfur and iron is heated?
no,iron sulphide is made up when sulphur and iron is heated.
What is the chemical name for MgSe?
On the surface, this would be magnesium sulphide, but magnesium sulphide is MgS. The compound here, Mg2S2, has the same ratio of magnesium to sulfur as MgS, but this compound, Mg2S2 is not one that exists. A molecule made of two atoms of magnesium and two atoms of sulfur, Mg2S2, will not form. A link can be found below to the "real" magnesium sulphide.
Is iron sulphide made by mixing iron and sulphur together?
Yes, the reaction is possible when the mixture is heated.
What is iron plus sulphur?
Fe2SO4 for Iron(II) sulfate and Fe2(SO4)3 for Fe(III)sulfate.
What is nitrogen sulphide made of?
nitrogen and sulphide
Does magnesium provide protein?
No, magnesium is a mineral. Protiens are made by amino acids, and you can get these from meat and dairy products, or the body makes them itself from carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and sulphur mainly.
Is iron sulphide a compound?
No, a compound always consists of two or more different elements chemically bonded together to form a new substance with different chemical properties to the individual components. Sulphur is an element.
