State what happens when zinc granules are heated with sodium hydroxide solution. Write the balanced equation for this reaction. Name the main product formed in this reaction.
(N/A) When zinc granules are heated with sodium hydroxide solution,a chemical reaction occurs in which hydrogen gas is evolved and a salt called sodium zincate is formed.
The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is:
$Zn(s) + 2NaOH(aq) \longrightarrow Na_2ZnO_2(aq) + H_2(g)$
The main product formed in this reaction is sodium zincate $(Na_2ZnO_2)$.
The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is:
$Zn(s) + 2NaOH(aq) \longrightarrow Na_2ZnO_2(aq) + H_2(g)$
The main product formed in this reaction is sodium zincate $(Na_2ZnO_2)$.
