Answer:

2Cr³⁺(aq) + 3S²⁻(aq) ----> Cr₂S₃(s)

Explanation:

When aqueous solutions of chromium(III) chloride and ammonium sulfide are mixed together, chromium (III) chloride and ammonium sulfide undergoes a double displacement reaction to produce chromium (iii) sulphide as a precipitate and ammonium chloride which remains in solution.

The general equation of the reaction is given below:

2CrCl₃(aq) + 3(NH₄)₂S(aq) ----> Cr₂S₃(s) + 6NH₄Cl(aq)

The net equation of the reaction is given below:

2Cr³⁺(aq) + 3S²⁻(aq) ----> Cr₂S₃(s)
