Solution

Zinc carbonate( $Z n C O_{3}$ ) can be easily prepared from Zinc sulfate( $Z n S O_{4}$ ).
Zinc sulfate reacts with Sodium carbonate to form Zin carbonate.
Sodium sulfate is obtained as a byproduct of this reaction.
The chemical equation for this reaction is,
$Z n S O_{4} + \underset{S o d i u m c a r b o n a t e}{N a_{2} C O_{3}} \to \underset{S o d i u m s u l f a t e}{N a_{2} S O_{4}} + Z n C O_{3}$
