Tin(II) sulfide Tin(II) sulfide Tin(II) sulfide is a chemical compound of tin and sulfur. The chemical formula is SnS. Its natural occurrence concerns herzenbergite (α-SnS), a rare mineral. At elevated temperatures above 905K, SnS undergoes a second order phase transition to β-SnS (space group: cmcm, No. 63). in recent years, it has become evident that a new polymorph of SnS exist based upon the cubic crystal system, π-SnS (space group: P23, No. 198). Tin(II) sulfide can be prepared by reacting tin with sulfur, or tin(II) chloride with hydrogen sulfide. Tin(II) sulfide is a dark brown or black solid, insoluble in water, but
Anniversary + 200). In Latin, it seems that this rule did not apply precisely for 1½. While "secundus" is Latin for "second", and "bis" for "twice", these terms are not used such as in sesqui-secundus. Instead "sesqui" (or "ses") is used by itself. Many anniversaries have special names. "Etiquette in Society, in Business, in Politics and at Home" by Emily Post, published in 1922, contained suggestions for wedding anniversary gifts for 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 50, and 75 years. Wedding anniversary gift suggestions for other years were added in later editions and publications; they now comprise what is referred
