The above equation describes the reaction process between silver nitrate (AgNO3) and potassium sulfide (K2S) to produce silver sulfide (Ag2S) and potassium nitrate (KNO3).
- Reaction conditions
This reaction occurs under normal conditions with normal temperature and pressure.
- Reaction process
Silver nitrate (AgNO3) and potassium sulfide (K2S) react to form silver sulfide (Ag2S) and potassium nitrate (KNO3). During the reaction process, silver cation (Ag+) combines with sulfide anion (S2-) to form silver sulfide, and potassium cation (K+) combines with nitrate anion (NO3-) to form potassium nitrate.
- Observed phenomena
When silver nitrate and potassium sulfide react with each other, the most obvious phenomenon that can be observed is the formation of silver sulfide, a black solid. At the same time, potassium nitrate, a colorless solid, is also formed.
