H2S + 2 In → In2S + H2
This is an oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction:
2 In0 - 2 e- → 2 InI (oxidation)
2 HI + 2 e- → 2 H0 (reduction)
In is a reducing agent, H2S is an oxidizing agent.
Reactants:
- H2S – Hydrogen sulfide
- Other names: D , Ihydrogen monosulfide|Dihydrogen sulfide|Sewer gas|Sulfane|Sulfurated hydrogen|Sulfureted hydrogen|Sulfuretted hydrogen|Sulfur hydride|Hydrosulfuric acid|Hydrothionic acid|Thiohydroxic acid|Sulfhydric acid}} , Hydrosulfuric acid
- Appearance: Colorless gas ; Colourless compressed liquefied gas with characteristic odour of rotten eggs ; Colorless gas with a strong odor of rotten eggs. [Note: Sense of smell becomes rapidly fatigued & can NOT be relied upon to warn of the continuous presence of H2S. Shipped as a liquefied compressed gas.]
