Yes - nearly always. H2S is a toxic gas and quite corrosive - slightly acidic.

When h2s burn it conver into which gas?

When hydrogen sulfide (H2S) burns, it is oxidized to form sulfur dioxide (SO2) gas.


Can H2S gas discolor carpeting?

H2S do not have bleaching properties.So it do not discolor


How is smell of H2S gas?

H2S has a terribal smell.It smells like rotten eggs.


What volumes of h2s gas and oxygen are necessary to produce 14.2 l of sulfur dioxide gas the balanced equation is 2 h2s 3 o2 2 so2 2 H2O?

Using the balanced chemical equation, you can see that 2 moles of H2S will produce 2 moles of SO2. Therefore, 1 mole of H2S will produce 1 mole of SO2. Given that 14.2 L of SO2 gas is produced, you would need the same volume of H2S gas. For oxygen, the ratio of H2S to O2 is 3:2, so 1.5 times the volume of H2S gas is needed in O2 gas.


Is H2S the heaviest gas?

No, remember any element heated to a high enough temperature will form a gaseous phase for instance mercury vapour would be heavier than H2S.


What toxic gas does h2s release when its burning?

Burning of H2S produce SO2 and water.SO2 is the toxic gas.


What is the equation for photosynthesis using CO2 and H2S?

It is not using H2S gas. It is using H2O liquid.


What is the initial pressure of H2S gas in the flask with a Kp value of 0.120 at 25 deg C?

To determine the initial pressure of H2S gas in the flask, we need the total pressure and the partial pressure of another gas in equilibrium with H2S. Without the partial pressure of the other gas, we can't determine the initial pressure of H2S with just the Kp value and temperature provided.


How is hydrogen gas react with sulfur?

When hydrogen gas reacts with sulfur, it forms hydrogen sulfide gas (H2S) according to the chemical equation: H2 + S -> H2S. This reaction is exothermic and produces a foul-smelling gas that is toxic in high concentrations.


What smells like faeces?

Actually, the gas that sometimes contaminates natural gas and oil well call hydrogen sulfide (H2S). H2S is also a byproduct of mammalian digestion, so anything containing H2S will smell similar.


Why it is not a good way to burn H2s?

Because burning H2S produces SO2 gas which is toxic and an air pollutant.


What is the formula and name of H2S?

The formula for hydrogen sulfide is H2S. It is a colorless gas with a distinct rotten egg odor.
