Английская Википедия:Chromium(II) sulfide
Chromium(II) sulfide is an inorganic compound of chromium and sulfur with the chemical formula CrS.[1][2][3] The compound forms black hexagonal crystals, insoluble in water.[4]
Synthesis
Chromium(II) sulfide may be formed by reaction of chromium metal with sulfur or hydrogen sulfide at high temperature. It may also be formed by reacting chromium(III) chloride with H2S, reducing chromium(III) sulfide with hydrogen, or by double replacement reaction of lithium sulfide with chromium(II) chloride.[5]
