could you please help me with this



The reaction of strontium with sulfur is similar to that of magnesium with sulfur. Write the balanced chemical equation for the
reaction of strontium with sulfur. Include phase symbols

Respuesta :

Neetoo

Answer:

Chemical equation:

Sr + S → SrS

Explanation:

Mg react with sulfur and form magnesium sulfate.

Chemical equation:

Mg + S  →  MgS

The oxidation state of magnesium is +2  it loses its two valance electrons while sulfur gain two electrons to complete the octet. That's why one atom of magnesium combine with one atom sulfur.

Chemical equation:

Sr + S → SrS

The oxidation state of strontium is +2  it loses its two valance electrons while sulfur gain two electrons to complete the octet. That's why one atom of strontium combine with one atom sulfur.
