copper + sulphur = copper sulphide!

it's been a while since I've done chemestry, so bear with me.

the reaction works out as CuS + O2 = Cu + SO2 , if i read your word equation correctly, which would make the reactants copper sulphide and oxygen.

In iron sulphide plus oxygen gives iron oxide plus sulfur dioxide is iron a reactant or product?

There is no elemental iron (Fe) involved in this reaction, neither as reactant (iron sulphide -FeS- plus oxygen are) nor as product (iron oxide (FeO) plus sulphur dioxide are)


What is the chemical equation for smelting copper sulphide?

The chemical equation for smelting copper sulphide is: Cu2S (copper sulphide) + O2 (oxygen) → 2Cu (copper) + SO2 (sulfur dioxide). This reaction is typically carried out in a furnace at high temperatures.


What key feature must a chemical equation have for it to be classified as a combustion reaction?

The product must be oxidized, i.e, Oxygen must be on the reactant side. Also, the reactant will form its oxide and also liberate heat energy. In case of hydrocarbons, Carbon Dioxide, water and heat energy will be liberated and it is a must when writing the chemical equation.

is a reactant heat carbon dioxide or oxygen?

The reactant that absorbs heat in a combustion reaction is typically oxygen, not carbon dioxide. Oxygen acts as an oxidizing agent, combining with the fuel to release energy in the form of heat. Carbon dioxide is one of the products of the combustion reaction.


What is a reactant in a chemical equation?

A reactant is something that reacts with another thing(s) in a word equation to make something else (the things made are the 'products'). So an example is:CARBON + OXYGEN -> CARBON DIOXIDE + WATERCarbon and oxygen are the reactants and carbon dioxide and water are the products.This word equation as a symbol equation is:C + O2 -> CO2 + H20

Which gas is a reactant in photosynthesis and which is a product of photosynthesis?

Word equation for photosynthesis: carbon dioxide + water ---in the prescence of sunlight and chlorophyll --> glucose + oxygen Balanced symbol equation: 6CO2 + 6H2O ---> C6H12O6 + 6O2 Therefore the reactant gas is carbon dioxide and the product gas is oxygen.
