Chapter 4, Problem 8STP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Product of the reaction between dihydrogen sulfide and water needs to be determined.

Concept introduction: Dihydrogen sulfide $({\text{H}}_2\text{S)}$ is soluble in water and act as a weak acid.

Answer to Problem 8STP

A is correct option.

Explanation of Solution

Balanced reaction equation: ${\text{H}}_2\text{S}+4{\text{H}}_2\text{O}\to {\text{H}}_2{\text{SO}}_4+4{\text{H}}_2$

So, it is evident from the equation that sulfuric acid is formed.

Conclusion

A is correct option.
