When Sulphur becomes Sulphide, it becomes negatively charged with 2 extra negative charges.
It is S2-
It becomes this ion after the gain of two electrons.
Cesium Sulfide
No, sulfur sulfide is not a compound. However, sulfur forms different compounds with various elements. One common example is sulfur dioxide (SO2), which is a gas formed by the combination of sulfur and oxygen.
Sulfide is a sulfur ion with -2 charge.
Sulfide is not a metal, it is composed from the element sulfur, which is a non metal.
A sulfur atom gains 2 electrons when it becomes a sulfide ion.
polyatomic ion
It becomes this ion after the gain of two electrons.
It becomes this ion after the gain of two electrons.
Sulpher gains two electrons as it is in group 6 and to be stable it would obviously need two more electrons.. :)
Cesium Sulfide
No, sulfur sulfide is not a compound. However, sulfur forms different compounds with various elements. One common example is sulfur dioxide (SO2), which is a gas formed by the combination of sulfur and oxygen.
Sulfide is a sulfur ion with -2 charge.
Sulfide is not a metal, it is composed from the element sulfur, which is a non metal.
The sulfur atom only has 6 electrons in its outer shell, and following the octet rule, it wants to get to the closest noble gas. The elements want to have a full outer level, so it will gain 2 electrons to get to 8. So the Sulfur atom now becomes a Sulfide ion.
Al2S3
Yes, it is a compound of hydrogen and sulfur, or sulfur dioxide.
