I guess you are referring to the shiny metallic appearance when you say 'silver' Carbon is not silver in appearance. Sulphur is not silver in appearance. Both Carbon and Sulphur are elements.


Why does silver turn black?

silvers turn black due to the reaction of sulphur present in hydrogen sulphide from air. --- Tarnish is silver oxide (rust) caused by a chemical reaction of oxygen and hydrogen sulphide with the surface of the silver. Unlike iron, silver will not rust in air absent of hydrogen sulphide.

What happens when water is added to the gas jars in which sulphur was burnt?

When water is added to the gas jars in which sulphur was burnt, a chemical reaction occurs. The sulphur dioxide gas produced from burning sulphur reacts with the water to form sulphurous acid (H2SO3). This reaction results in the formation of a colorless solution with acidic properties.


When 4.00 g of silver reacts with 4.00 g of sulphur what mass of silver sulfide is produced?

Silver sulfide Ag2S -Molar mass: 247.9 g/mol . Thus 2 moles of silver will react with one mole of sulphur. Silver Atomic mass: 107.9 so 4 g = 0.0370713623725672 of a mole Sulphur Atomic mass 32.1 so 4 g= 0.1246105919003115 of a mole Ag2S -Molar mass: 247.9 g/mol - which is 32.1 g of Sulphur + 2 times 107.9 = 215.8 g of Silver Therefore 32.1/215.8 = 0.1487488415199259 the ratio of the masses Therefor Silver 4 g * 0.1487488415199259 = 0.5949953660797034 g of Sulphur Therefore the mass of Silver sulphide produced is 4.5949953660797034 grams, With 4-0.5949953660797034 = 3.405004633920297 g of sulphur left over.

Is 2Ag plus S the same as Ag2S?

No. "2Ag + S" (two silver plus sulphur) refers to threeseparate molecules: two of silver and one of sulphur. Ag2S (silver sulphide) refers to one molecule composed of two silver atoms and one sulphur atom bonded together. They're the same atoms if that's what you're asking, but they've undergone a chemical change.
