What is Hydrogen Sulfide

On the nature of hydrogen sulfide
, if there are differences, hydrogen sulfide is also.

First, what is hydrogen sulfide
Hydrogen sulfide, the genus of gas. Its body is formless, colorless, but it smells bad, if rotten eggs, pungent and intolerable. According to chemical reasons, its formula is $H_2S $, which is composed of dihydrogen and sulfide. Hydrogen, a light and active element, and sulfur, is commonly found in ores. When the two meet and phase, they form hydrogen sulfide.

Second, the characteristics of hydrogen sulfide
Its properties are various. In terms of physical properties, the density is heavier than that of air, so it often gathers in the lower parts of the ground. Its soluble water is also considerable, slightly soluble in water, soluble in acid, known as hydrosulfuric acid. In terms of its chemical properties, hydrogen sulfide is flammable. It burns in the air, showing a light blue flame, and converts into sulfur dioxide and water. And it is reducing. When it encounters strong oxidants, such as chlorine gas, potassium permanganate, etc., it is easily oxidized and changes its chemical state.

Third, the origin of hydrogen sulfide
It is born in many places. In geothermal places, where volcanoes erupt thinly, or where springs spring, hydrogen sulfide often escapes, which covers the chemical reactions underground. In swamps, wetlands, and when organic matter decays and decomposes, it can also generate this gas. Furthermore, the exploitation of oil and natural gas, and the operation of mines can cause hydrogen sulfide to appear in the world. Because it is often born in filthy places, its stench is also a warning to nature.

IV. Proper use of hydrogen sulfide
is a good thing for the world. In the chemical industry, it can produce important raw materials such as sulfuric acid and sulfur. In analytical chemistry, it can be used as a reagent to detect metal ions. Because of its encounter with various metal ions, special precipitation often occurs, and the genus of metals can be broken. However, it is also harmful. If a person inhales it, it can cause discomfort to the eyes, nose and throat, damage to the nervous system, and even fainting and death. In the environment, the spill of hydrogen sulfide, pollute the air, and harm the ecology, which is a serious disaster.

Therefore, those who know hydrogen sulfide have two sides. If they use it well, it will be for the benefit of the world; if they are sparse, it will be a problem for the world. People should use scientific methods to observe its nature, understand its use, and avoid its harm, so as to reach the realm of harmony between things and ourselves.
