Hydrogen Sulfide Iron Reaction

The reaction between hydrogen sulfide and iron has been going on since ancient times. If there is hydrogen sulfide, the gas is smelly, and iron is a common metal.

When the gas of hydrogen sulfide meets iron, the two contact and react. The nature of sulfur in hydrogen sulfide is to obtain electrons, and iron has the ability to lose electrons. It loses electrons from iron and converts into iron ions, and sulfur gains electrons and forms sulfur ions. The combination of the two gradually produces iron sulfide and the like.

Looking at this reaction, you can see the wonderful change between substances. Iron in the air often encounters gases such as hydrogen sulfide, or in the wet place containing hydrogen sulfide in the ground, this change can occur. This reaction is not fast, and it takes a long time, and the shape of iron also gradually changes. Although the people of the past did not have the scientific detailed observation today, they knew that iron changed over time from what they saw every day, and there was also the reaction between hydrogen sulfide and iron. Although the change is minimal, it is essential to observe the existence of iron.
