Detailed information about the equation 12HNO3 + 2As2S3 -> 2As2O5 + 12NO + 6H2O:
- The chemical equation above describes the reaction of nitric oxidant (HNO3) with arsenic sulfide (As2S3).
- According to the equation, each mol of As2S3 needs 6 mol of HNO3 to fully react and produce 1 mol of As2O5, 6 mol of NO and 3 mol of H2O.
- This reaction is a redox reaction, in which As2S3 is oxidized to As2O5 and HNO3 is reduced to NO.
