As2S3 is the chemical formula for arsenic trisulfide, a yellow solid commonly known as orpiment. It is used in traditional medicine, pyrotechnics, and as a pigment in paints. It is also toxic and should be handled with caution.
The conventional name for As2S3 is arsenic trisulfide.
The prefix di means two, and tri means three, so you have 2 Arsenic and 3sulfur, which comes to Ar2S3.
An ore of arsenic is primarily arsenopyrite, which is a mineral composed of iron, arsenic, and sulfur (FeAsS). It is the most significant source of arsenic and is typically found in hydrothermal deposits. Other arsenic-containing minerals include realgar (As4S4) and orpiment (As2S3), but arsenopyrite is the most economically important. Arsenic is extracted from these ores for various industrial applications, including semiconductor manufacturing and as a preservative.
AsArsenic is a chemical element with the symbol As, atomic number 33 and relative atomic mass 74.92. Arsenic occurs in many minerals, mainly combined with sulfur and metals, and also naturally in the native (elemental) state.
Arsenic(As) is a metalloid present in group 15 in the periodic table. It is part of the p-block elements and a member of the Nitrogen family.It is metallic grey in color. all you need is that it is just a metalloid
As2S3 is diarsenic triphosphate. hope this helped
The conventional name for As2S3 is arsenic trisulfide.
It is As2S3
As2S3 is written as diarsenic trisulfide. It consists of two atoms of arsenic and three atoms of sulfur bonded together.
2As3+ + 3S2- ---------> As2S3
The compound of arsenic and sulfur is arsenic sulfide, with the chemical formula As2S3.
MgCl2 is a better coagulant for As2S3 because magnesium ions form stronger electrostatic bonds with the negatively charged sulfide ions in the As2S3, leading to better coagulation and precipitation of the arsenic sulfide particles. Additionally, magnesium ions have higher charge density compared to potassium ions from KCl, providing better bridging and agglomeration of the colloidal particles.
Robert J. Kobliska has written: 'Temperature dependence of the Raman spectrum and the depolarization spectrum of amorphous As2S3'
The salt As2S3 is a negatively charged salt. According to Hardy and Schulz rule, the ions having higher positive charge value will attract more negative charged ions. Here, Mg2+ has 2 positive ions where K+ has 1 positive ion. As the charge of Mg2+ is more, it'll attract more negative charged ions; so gravitational force will work downward and will easily settle down than K+. That's why MgCl2 is a better coagulant than KCl.

Minerals are materials that after millions of years take their most stable form. Crystals are structures that are always preferred relatively to the amorphous state. That's why almost every mineral is crystalline. For example As2S3 melts always results in an amorphous-glassy solid (phase change material used in CDs) but in the nature it is a crystalline solid known as orpiment (a yellow dye).
