Question

Answer

Part A

𝐹𝑒(𝑠) + 𝑆(𝑠) → 𝐻𝑒𝑎𝑡    𝐹𝑒𝑆(𝑠)

𝐹𝑒𝑠(𝑠) + 2𝐻𝐶𝑙(𝑎𝑞) → 𝐹𝑒𝐶𝑙2(𝑎𝑞) + 𝐻2𝑆(𝑔)

Part B

Fe(s) + S(s) → Mixture of iron filings and sulphur

When dilute HCl is added to it

Fe(s) + S(s) + 2HCI(aq) → FeCl2(aq) + H2(g)

Sulphur remains unreacted.

H2S gas formed has a foul smell and on passing through lead acetate solution, it turns the solution black. Hydrogen gas burns with a pop sound.
