Synthesis of Potassium Sulfide Preparation of potassium sulfide By treating potassium hydroxide with an excess of hydrogen sulfide potassium hydrosulfide (KHS) forms, which with further treatment with the same quantity of potassium hydroxide yields potassium sulfide: Hydrogen sulfide is passed through 3 parts of concentrated potassium hydroxide solution until no further absorption takes place. Then 2 parts of concentrated potassium hydroxide solution is added in order to neutralize potassium hydrosulfide. The rule, however, is to add only two-thirds of the quantity of solution of potassium hydroxide, as it is better the preparation should contain a little potassium hydrosulfide than that free…

Synthesis of Sulfur Trioxide Preparation of Sulfur Trioxide Sulfur trioxide is formed by reacting sulfur dioxide with oxygen in the present of platinum catalyst. 40 cm long, hard melted glass tube is connected to the ice-cooled receiver. In the tube 10 cm platinized asbestos is placed. Platinized asbestos could be prepared by treating asbestos with the 5 ml of 10% chloroplatinic acid solution and then drying and applying red heat. Heated chloroplatinic acid decomposes and the fibers of asbestos is covered by platinum (catalyst). Platinized asbestos after each use should be well washed with water and heated in the red…
Synthesis of Hydroiodic Acid Preparation of Hydroiodic Acid Hydroiodic Acid: Rubber stoppers, as well as direct light, should be avoided in all operations with iodine, hydrogen iodide and hydroiodic acid. Platinized asbestos is prepared by soaking 3 g of asbestos in 7 ml of 10 % hexachloroplatinic (IV) acid, evaporating the mixture to dryness, and igniting the residue at red heat. A 250-ml distilling flask with a short side-arm at least 10mm wide. The flask is fitted with a gas inlet tube reaching just above the surface of 100g of pure iodine contained in the vessel. The flask is connected…
Synthesis of Hydrobromic Acid Preparation of Hydrobromic Acid Hydrobromic Acid: Of the six methods given here, the first three may be used for the production of gaseous hydrogen bromide as well as for aqueous solutions of the gas; rest of them could be employed only for making the constant-boiling hydrobromic acid acid. The apparatus for hydrobromic acid is made of a gas-washing bottle filled with water, connected to a distilling flask filled with 50 ml of bromine cooled in ice with the inlet tube leading almost to the bottom of the flask. The inlet tube is connected to a Pyrex…
