Firstly, I apologize, but it seems like your formula is incorrect. Sr2O7S2 is not a valid chemical formula, perhaps there was a mix-up during your notation.
Consider the example of Strontium Sulfide (SrS) as a replacement for Sr2O7S2 to carry out your tutorial.
- Define SrS
1.1 Names
1.1.1 Common name: Strontium Sulfide
1.1.2 English name: Strontium Sulfide
1.2. Atomic mass: Strontium 38 and sulfur 16
1.3. Molar mass: 87.62 (Strontium) + 32 -> .06 (sulfur) = 119.68 g/mol
1.3.1 Molecular structure: A molecule of Strontium Sulfide comprises one atom of strontium and one atom of sulfur.
1.4 Ion structure: Strontium Sulfide has an ionic structure, where strontium transfers its two electrons to sulfur, forming Sr2+ and S2- ions.
- Properties of SrS
2.1 Physical properties of SrS
State: Solid
Color: White or faint yellow
Odor: Odorless
PH level: Not applicable as it is insoluble in water
2.2 Chemical properties of SrS: Strontium Sulfide reacts with acid to form a strontium salt and hydrogen sulfide gas.
- Common chemical reactions of SrS
- Synthesis of SrS
4.1 Laboratory synthesis of SrS: SrS can be synthesized by heating strontium and sulfur in an air-free environment.
4.2 Industrial synthesis of SrS: In industries, SrS is typically produced by reacting strontium carbonate (SrCO3) with excess sulfur at high temperatures.
