Upon treatment with an acid, bisulfide converts to [[hydrogen sulfide]]. With strong acids, it can be doubly protonated to give {{Chem|H|3|S|+}}. Oxidation of bisulfide gives sulfate. When strongly heated, bisulfide salts decompose to produce [[sulfide]] salts and hydrogen sulfide.
Upon treatment with an acid, bisulfide converts to [[hydrogen sulfide]]. Oxidation of bisulfide gives polysulfide and eventually [[sulfate]]. When anstrongly heated, alkali bisulfide salts decompose to produce [[sulfide]] salts and hydrogen sulfide.

When treated with metal salts, bisulfide gives the corresponding sulfide:
SH is a [[HSAB theory|soft]] anionic [[ligand]] that forms [[Transition metal complexes of hydrogen sulfide and hydrosulfide|complexes]] with most metal ions. Examples include [Au(SH)2] and (C5H5)2Ti(SH)2, derived from [[gold(I) chloride]] and [[titanocene dichloride]], respectively.{{Citation |author1=Peruzzini, M. |author2=de los Rios, I. |author3=Romerosa, A. |name-list-style=amp | title = Coordination Chemistry of Transition Metals with Hydrogen Chalcogenide and Hydrogen Chalcogenido Ligands | journal = Progress in Inorganic Chemistry | volume = 49 | pages = 169–543 | year = 2001 | doi =10.1002/9780470166512.ch3 | isbn = 978-0-470-16651-2 }}

This conversion is the basis of some schemes in [[qualitative inorganic analysis]].

Under specific conditions, SH forms [[Transition metal complexes of hydrogen sulfide and hydrosulfide|complexes]] with most metal ions. Examples include [Au(SH)2] and (C5H5)2Ti(SH)2, derived from [[gold(I) chloride]] and [[titanocene dichloride]], respectively.{{Citation |author1=Peruzzini, M. |author2=de los Rios, I. |author3=Romerosa, A. |name-list-style=amp | title = Coordination Chemistry of Transition Metals with Hydrogen Chalcogenide and Hydrogen Chalcogenido Ligands | journal = Progress in Inorganic Chemistry | volume = 49 | pages = 169–543 | year = 2001 | doi =10.1002/9780470166512.ch3 | isbn = 978-0-470-16651-2 }}
