Answer:
An ionic bond forms between two ions of opposite charges. In ionic bonding, electrons transfer from one atom to another. The elements take on either a negative or positive charge. Ions are another name for charged atoms. Some elements are electropositive, and some are electronegative.
Hope this helps!
Bonds formed between atoms can be classified as ionic and covalent
Ionic bonds are formed between atoms that have a high difference in the electronegativity values.
In contrast, bonds formed between atoms that have a difference in electronegativity lower than the ionic counterparts are polar covalent bonds. If the atoms have very similar electronegativities, they form non-polar covalent bonds.
In H2S, the S atom is bonded to 2 H atoms. The electronegativity of H = 2.2 and S= 2.56. Since the difference is not high the bond formed will be covalent (polar covalent).

So what have I done here? First, I had a balanced chemical equation (this is the important step; is it balanced?). Then I used the stoichiometry to get the molar quantity of product, and converted this molar quantity to mass. If this is not clear, I am willing to have another go
I believe it is "empirical formula"
