:Iron sulfide (FeS2)
Description:
Iron sulfide (FeS2), commonly known as pyrite or fool's gold, is a chemical compound characterized by its distinct metallic luster and pale brass-yellow hue. It typically occurs in cubic crystals and is often found in sedimentary rocks, hydrothermal veins, and as a byproduct of various mining activities. Pyrite is notable for its high sulfur content, which can lead to environmental concerns when it oxidizes, producing sulfuric acid and contributing to acid mine drainage. The compound is relatively stable under ambient conditions but can react with strong acids and bases. In terms of its physical properties, FeS2 has a hardness of about 6 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale and a specific gravity ranging from 4.8 to 5.2. Pyrite is also used in various industrial applications, including the production of sulfur and sulfuric acid, and has potential uses in renewable energy technologies, such as solar cells. However, its economic value is often overshadowed by its association with mining waste and environmental impact.
