Hydrogen sulfide is a hydride of sulfur with the chemical formula H2S. It is a colorless, foul-smelling (rotten egg) highly toxic gas. It is soluble in water and ethanol, with a specific gravity of 1.1906. The melting point is -85.5�°C, the boiling point is -60.4�°C, the critical temperature is 100.4�°C, and the critical pressure is 90.06�?105 Pa. The autoignition point is 260�°C, and it is flammable. It can cause explosive combustion when it encounters a spark. When mixed with air, it can cause an explosion, and the explosion limit is 4% to 44% (volume). It can react chemically with a variety of ions to produce water-insoluble sulfides, which can turn the surface of copper and silver black. It is widely present in the manufacturing industries of metal smelting, natural gas, hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid. When manufacturing various sulfides such as sulfate pulp, rayon, artificial cotton, rubber, carbon disulfide, etc., hydrogen sulfide gas is often discharged. In some chemical reactions, unstable sulfur-containing compounds will also decompose into hydrogen sulfide. For example, in coking, refined petroleum and metal smelting, hydrogen sulfide, as a conventional waste gas, is very easy to leak into the air. The decomposition of sulfur dyes can also release hydrogen sulfide gas.
