Question

When you mix sulfur and iron, what do you get?

Answer 1

Iron Sulfide

Step-by-step explanation:

• It shows the exothermic reaction of two elements, iron and sulfur, to form the compound, iron sulfide. The two solids are mixed and heated in a test-tube (or ignition tube). The reaction can be used to illustrate elements, mixtures and compounds.
• Fe + S → FeS (heat) Page 2 Maine Geological Survey | 2 One atom of iron (or a million atoms of iron) and one atom of sulfur (or one million atoms of sulfur) react with heat to make one molecule of iron sulfide (or a million molecules of iron sulfide).
