inorganic compound with the formula H
2S
3. It is a pale yellow volatile liquid with a camphor-like odor. It decomposes readily to
hydrogen sulfide (H
2S) and elemental
sulfur. It is produced by distillation of the polysulfane oil obtained by acidification of
polysulfide
Polysulfides are a class of chemical compounds containing chains of sulfur atoms. There are two main classes of polysulfides: inorganic and organic. Among the inorganic polysulfides, there are ones which contain anions, which have the general formu ...
salts.
