What type of reaction occurs in the formation of Arsenic Sulphide colloidal solution?

Dear Student

​​​​​​Double decomposition reaction occurs.
An Arsenic sulphide Sol is prepared by passing a slow stream of hydrogen sulphide gas through a cold solution of arsenious oxide. This is continued till the yellow colour of sol attains maximum intensity.
As2​O3​ + 3 H2​S → As2​S3​​ + 3 H2​O
Excess hydrogen sulphide is removed by passing in a stream of hydrogen.

Regards
