The correct name is diantimony trisulfide or stibnite as a mineral.
The group V metalloid that is quite versatile and used from tracer bullets to fireproofing is antimony. Antimony (Sb) is found mainly in nature as stibnite, Sb2S3.

From the Sanskrit word sulvereand the Latin word sulphurium.Say what? Sulfur is pronounced as SUL-fer.History and Uses:Sulfur, the tenth most abundant element in the universe, has been known since ancient times. Sometime around 1777, Antoine Lavoisier convinced the rest of the scientific community that sulfur was an element. Sulfur is a component of many common minerals, such as galena (PbS), gypsum (CaSO4·2(H2O), pyrite (FeS2), sphalerite (ZnS or FeS), cinnabar (HgS), stibnite (Sb2S3), epsomite (MgSO4·7(H2O)), celestite (SrSO4) and barite (BaSO4). Nearly 25% of the sulfur produced today is recovered from petroleum refining operations and as a byproduct of extracting other materials from sulfur containing ores. The majority of the sulfur produced today is obtained from underground deposits, usually found in conjunction with salt deposits, with a process known as the Frasch process.Sulfur is a pale yellow, odorless and brittle material. It displays three allotropic forms: orthorhombic, monoclinic and amorphous. The orthorhombic form is the most stable form of sulfur. Monoclinic sulfur exists between the temperatures of 96°C and 119°C and reverts back to the orthorhombic form when cooled. Amorphous sulfur is formed when molten sulfur is quickly cooled. Amorphous sulfur is soft and elastic and eventually reverts back to the orthorhombic form.Most of the sulfur that is produced is used in the manufacture of sulfuric acid (H2SO4). Large amounts of sulfuric acid, nearly 40 million tons, are used each year to make fertilizers, lead-acid batteries, and in many industrial processes. Smaller amounts of sulfur are used to vulcanize natural rubbers, as an insecticide (the Greek poet Homer mentioned "pest-averting sulphur" nearly 2,800 years ago!), in the manufacture of gunpowder and as a dying agent.In addition to sulfuric acid, sulfur forms other interesting compounds. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a gas that smells like rotten eggs. Sulfur dioxide (SO2), formed by burning sulfur in air, is used as a bleaching agent, solvent, disinfectant and as a refrigerant. When combined with water (H2O), sulfur dioxide forms sulfurous acid (H2SO3), a weak acid that is a major component of acid rain.Estimated Crustal Abundance: 3.50×102 milligrams per kilogramEstimated Oceanic Abundance: 9.05×102 milligrams per literNumber of Stable Isotopes: 4 (View all isotope data)Ionization Energy: 10.360 eVOxidation States: +6, +4, -2Electron Shell Configuration:1s22s22p63s23p4
Sb2S3
Formula: Sb2S3
The correct name is diantimony trisulfide or stibnite as a mineral.
Antimony trisulphide Sb2S3 is a compound and does not have an atomic number. Antimony does and so does sulfur - but not the compound
Tye did not use an element but a compound made from an element - namely Antimony(III) sulfide, Sb2S3.
Antimony produces a good white, it can be employed as the metal powder or as the trisulphide (Sb2S3). Magnesium and titanium will both produce white sparks.
Antimony does not have a molecular formula. It is an element (chemical symbol Sb, atomic number 51) known as a brittle, toxic metalloid. Its alloys are used for ball bearings and solders; and some of its compounds are used for derivation of superacids and other chemicals, while others are used in fire retardants. Kohl --- an eye cosmetic invented by Egyptians circa 3100 BC --- contains Sb2S3, a sulphide of antimony.
Antimony has been in use since the ancient Egyptian's used one its minerals, stibnite (Sb2S3) as black eyeliner up to 5000 years ago. Roman author Pliny described how heating this mineral formed what he called lead. We now know that this was actually antimony.
Sn+3 S-2 <--- these are the ions and their charges Sn+3 Sn+3 S-2 S-2 S-2 <--- the charges have to add up to zero, so two +3 antimony ions cancel out three -2 sulfur ions Sn2S3 <--- simplify Note that Antimony III sulfide is also called stibnite or antimonite
Pure antimony is a pure element. No element can be broken down into a simpler substance by any means. Molecules and compounds that contain antimony, however, can easily be broken down into the pure element.
The group V metalloid that is quite versatile and used from tracer bullets to fireproofing is antimony. Antimony (Sb) is found mainly in nature as stibnite, Sb2S3.
C2N2H8 is NOT the empirical formula. The atom numbers can be reduced to CNH4 ; this is the empirical formula. C2N2H8 is di-amino ethane. Structurally it is H2N-CH2-CH2-NH2
