It requires more energy to boil an substance than to melt it (with special exceptions). When something is boiled you are furthering the distance between the already stretched out molecules which will require more energy to do so, also in most cases you will be creating a vapor from boiling which has a high kinetic energy value.
Answer:
The answer to your question is FeS₃
Explanation:
Data
mass of Fe = 3.78g
mass of S = 5.95 g
mass of FeS
Chemical Balanced Reaction
Fe + S ⇒ FeS
Process
1.- Convert the grams to moles
For Iron
55.85g of Fe -------------- 1 mol
3.78 g of Fe ----------- x
x = (3.78 x 1) / 55.85
x = 0.0677 moles
For Sulfur
32 g of S ------------------- 1 mol
5.95 g ------------------ x
x = (5.95 x 1)/32
x = 0.185 moles
2.- Divide by the lowest number of moles
Iron = 0.0677 /0.0677 = 1
Sulfur = 0.185 /0.0677 = 2.73 ≈ 3
3.- Write the empirical formula
FeS₃

Assuming that the ammonium sulfide formula is (NH4)2S then you can see that there are 2 nitrogen, 8 hydrogen and 2 sulfur atoms for every ammonium sulfide.
Hope that helps
Answer:
2NaCl(l) => 2Na(s) + Cl₂(g)
Explanation:
Electrolysis of melt NaCl to form sodium (Na) metal and chlorine (Cl₂) gas.
This is a class of reaction called 'Decomposition Rxns'. For what it's worth, there are 6 distinct compound types that undergo breakdown by decomposition. The acronym C O A C H E can help remember them.
C - Carbonates => CaCO₃(s) => CaO + CO₂
O - Oxides of Metals => 2Fe₂O₃(s) => 4Fe°(s) + 3O₂(g)
A - Acids (Oxoacids) => H₂CO₃(aq) => CO₂(g) + H₂O(l)
C - Chlorates, Bromates & Iodates => 2KClO₃(s) => 2KCl(s) + 3O₂(g)
H - Hydroxides => Ca(OH)₂(s) => CaO(s) + H₂O(l)
E - Electrolysis => see above electrolysis of NaCl(l)
