Chapter 15, Problem 13PE

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Acid and base that must be reacted together to form lithium sulphide salt have to be predicted and the equation for the formation of ${\text{Li}}_2\text{S}$ salt has to be written.

Concept Introduction:

Neutralization reaction involves condensation of an acid and base that generates a salt from the cation and anion substrates along with the removal of water. For instance, reaction amongst $\text{NaOH}$ and $\text{HCl}$  to form sodium chloride salt is as follows:

  $\text{NaOH}+\text{HCl}\to \text{NaCl}+{\text{H}}_2\text{O}$
