Potassium hydrogensulfide, with the chemical formula KHS and CAS number 1310-61-8, is an inorganic compound that consists of potassium, hydrogen, and sulfur. It typically appears as a white to yellowish solid and is highly soluble in water, forming a basic solution. This compound is known for its strong alkaline properties, which can lead to the release of hydrogen sulfide gas when it reacts with acids. Potassium hydrogensulfide is often used in various applications, including analytical chemistry, as a reagent in the synthesis of other chemical compounds, and in the treatment of wastewater. It can also serve as a source of sulfide ions in various chemical reactions. Due to its potential to release toxic gases, it should be handled with care, using appropriate safety measures to avoid inhalation or skin contact. Overall, potassium hydrogensulfide is a versatile compound with significant utility in both laboratory and industrial settings.
