The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the reaction that occurs when a dilute solution of aqueous ammonia (NH₃) is saturated with hydrogen sulfide (H₂S). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Reactants**: - The reactants in this scenario are aqueous ammonia (NH₃) and hydrogen sulfide (H₂S). 2. **Understand the Reaction**: - When NH₃ is saturated with H₂S, they can react to form a compound. Ammonia can react with hydrogen sulfide to form ammonium hydrogen sulfide. 3. **Write the Chemical Equation**: - The reaction can be represented as: \[ NH₃ + H₂S \rightarrow NH₄HS \] - Here, NH₄HS is ammonium hydrogen sulfide. 4. **Count the Atoms**: - On the reactant side: - Nitrogen (N): 1 from NH₃ - Hydrogen (H): 3 from NH₃ + 2 from H₂S = 5 - Sulfur (S): 1 from H₂S - On the product side (NH₄HS): - Nitrogen (N): 1 from NH₄HS - Hydrogen (H): 4 from NH₄ + 1 from HS = 5 - Sulfur (S): 1 from NH₄HS - The number of atoms on both sides is balanced. 5. **Evaluate the Options**: - The options provided include: 1. NH₄HS (correct) 2. NH₄₂S (incorrect, as it has 2 nitrogen atoms) 3. NH₄₂SX (not applicable) 4. NH₄OH (incorrect, as it introduces an oxygen atom not present in the reactants) - The only valid product that matches the balanced equation is NH₄HS. 6. **Conclusion**: - The product formed when a dilute solution of aqueous NH₃ is saturated with H₂S is **NH₄HS**. ### Final Answer: The product formed is **NH₄HS** (ammonium hydrogen sulfide).
