Hydrogen Sulfide Measurement

The method of measuring hydrogen sulfide
In ancient times, it was good to observe gas, and it took a lot of effort to measure hydrogen sulfide. Those who cover hydrogen sulfide have a smelly and toxic smell, but they may be involved in various things, so the method of measurement cannot be ignored.

At the beginning, there are those who test the taste of things with things. Choose the leaves of plants and trees, immerse them in water, and expose them to hydrogen sulfide. If the color of the leaves changes, you can know the existence of its gas. However, this only knows its approximation, not the amount of energy.

Then, it is measured by fire. In a ventilated place, set fire in a place suspected of having hydrogen sulfide. If the fire is a light blue flame and smells of sulfur, it also proves the presence of gas. Although this is a little clearer, it is still not refined in the measurement of quantity.

After that, the wise man thought of collecting it with water. Take a clean bottle and fill it with water, put it in the gas, and then take the water in the bottle. If you cast it with iron salt, if there is a black sinking, you can know that hydrogen sulfide dissolves in water, and you can measure the amount of gas according to the amount of sinking.

There are also people who measure it with stone. Take limestone, grind it and put it in the gas. If the surface of the stone changes, you can also know the gas of hydrogen sulfide.

All these kinds of measurement methods are the wisdom of the ancients in measuring hydrogen sulfide. Although it is not as precise as it is today, it was also an important way to detect qi at that time.
