∙ 16y agoA chemical equation describes a chemical change (i.e. a chemical reaction) using symbols. Irons sulfide alone is not undergoing a change - it is more appropriate to give its chemical formula, which is FeS. This is for iron in the +2 oxidation state.
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoThere are a number of compounds that could be called iron sulfide.
Iron(II) sulfide FeS. This is pyrophoric
Iron(III) sulfide Fe2S3 . This is rapidly oxidised by air.
Iron(II,III) sulfide Fe3S4, which is found in nature as a mineral greigite and is ferromagnetic like Fe3O4
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoIron (II) sulfide is FeS, and iron (III) sulfide is Fe2S3.
Wiki User
∙ 15y agoIf it's Fe2+ Fe + S ---> FeS If it's Fe4+ Fe + S ---> FeS2
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoFe + S -----> Fe2S
(the 2 should be in subscript)
In words:
Iron reacts with Sulfur to create Iron (II) Sulfide

Balance chemical equation for iron filling and sulfur powder mixture?
Fe + S = FeS
Is heated sulfur and iron fillings is substance or mixtures?
Heating sulfur with iron fillings lead to the formation of iron sulfide - a chemical compound.
What is the chemical formula for iron and sulfur?
8Fe + S8 → 8FeS
What is the chemical reaction for iron plus sulfur yields iron II sulfide?
Fe + S --> FeS
How do you write a skeleton equation for the reaction that produces iron II sulfide from iron and sulfur?
fe2(s)2 fe2s
What is the chemical equation of heated iron andsulfur?
chemical equation of heated iron and sulfur is as follows. FeS can be obtained by the heating of iron and sulfur:Fe + S → FeS.
Is rust a result of sulfur reacting with iron?
No. Rust forms from iron reacting with oxygen.
Balance chemical equation for iron filling and sulfur powder mixture?
Fe + S = FeS
What type of mixture is formed when iron filling reacts with sulfur powder?
Reacting iron with sulfur an iron sulfide is formed, not a mixture.
What are the products in the chemical equation starting iron plus sulfur?
There is only one product, the ionic compound iron(II) sulfide.iron + sulfur --> iron(II) sulfide Fe + S --> FeS
When a green iron salt is heated strongly its color finally changes to black and adour of burning sulfur is given out name the iron salt and write the chemical equation?
iron salt -sodium decomposition reaction don't know chemical equation
What is the balance chemical equation and classification of iron and sulfur?
Fe + S = FeS or 2Fe +3S = Fe2 +S3
How is iron sulphide a compound and not just a mixture of iron and sulfur?
Because in a chemical compound is a chemical bond between the elements. From a mixture of iron and sulfur iron can be separated with a magnet.
What mineral is made by sulfur and iron and is also a mixture?
Pyrite is made of iron and sulfur and is the compound iron sulfide with the chemical formula FeS2. It is not a mixture of iron and sulfur. The iron and sulfur are chemically combined to form a compound.
Is rusting of an iron hammer a chemical change and why?
yes because oxygen is reacting with iron
What is chemical equation for FeS?
FeS is not a chemical equation but a chemical formula; FeS is the chemical formula of iron sulfide.
Describe why iron filings and sulfur can be classified as element compound or mixture?
Because in a chemical compound is a chemical bond between the elements. From a mixture of iron and sulfur iron can be separated with a magnet.
