Did the properties of the iron and sulphur change when you mixed them?

No, the properties of iron and sulfur did not change when they were mixed physically together. Each substance retained its own individual properties as they remained physically mixed but not chemically bonded.


How does iron and sulphur mixture float in water?

When iron and sulfur are mixed together, they do not form a stable compound. Instead, they remain separate particles in the mixture. When this mixture is added to water, the individual iron and sulfur particles are denser than water, causing them to sink rather than float.


What would happen if you mixed iron with sulfur?

Nothing at all. They mix together to form a mixture which can be easily separated using a magnet to pull the iron out of the Sulphur. However if the two are heated strongly then iron sulphide will form. Once this chemical reaction has occurred they are almost inseparably under normal conditions.


How much iron sulphide will be formed if 56 g of iron and 40 g of sulphur are mixed together and heated?

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between iron and sulfur is 8 Fe + S8 -> 8 FeS. From the equation, 56 g of iron reacts with 40 g of sulfur to form 84 g of iron sulphide.


How do you obtain sulphur from a mixture of sulphur and iron fillings?

To obtain sulphur from a mixture of sulphur and iron fillings, you can use a magnet to separate the iron fillings from the mixture. Then, you can heat the remaining mixture to sublimate the sulphur, which will turn into a gas and can be collected by condensing it back into a solid form.

What happens when a little of ion powder mix with sulphur powder is being heated?

Do you mean iron powder mixed with sulphur powder? Fe(s) + S(s) ---> FeS (iron sulfide)


What is the difference between iron and iron sulphide?

Iron is a chemical element with the symbol Fe, while iron sulfide is a compound made up of iron and sulfur with the chemical formula FeS. Iron is a pure metal, while iron sulfide is a chemical compound that forms when iron reacts with sulfur. Iron sulfide is often found in nature as the mineral pyrite, also known as "fool's gold."


Is iron soluble?

No, when iron and water are mixed together it creates rust.

Why are sulphur and iron called element?

Its proved on periodic table and because of the way that they react together.

Hypothesis of separating iron filing and sulfur powder?

The hypothesis for separating iron filing and sulfur powder using a magnet is that iron is a magnetic material, whereas sulfur is not. By using a magnet, we can separate the iron filings from the sulfur powder based on their magnetic properties.


What does iron and sulphur make?

Iron Sulphide


Why is iron and sulfur mixture but not compound?

If you just mix iron and sulphur together, you're still left with a pile of iron and sulphur that are distinctly separate and could be easily separated by throwing the mixture in water (iron sinks, sulphur powder floats). If they were to react together, to become iron sulphide, then they would be chemically bound to each other as a compound and wouldn't be able to be separated by physical means.
