Each box in Figure 11.11 represents the contents of a
flask. One flask contains hydrogen sulfide, and the other
contains oxygen. When the contents of the flasks are mixed, a reaction occurs and water vapor and sulfur are produced. In the figure, the red circles represent oxygen,
the yellow circles represent sulfur, and blue circles represent hydrogen.
\begin{equation}
\begin{array}{l}{\text { a. Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction. }} \\ {\text { b. Using the same color code, sketch a representation of }} \\ {\text { the flask after the reaction occurs. }}\end{array}
