Question

Complete the following equation:${\mathrm{ZnCO}}_3+{\mathrm{HNO}}_3\to$

Answer 1

Explanation:

Reactants in the given reaction:: Zinc carbonate (ZnCO₃) and nitric acid (HNO₃)

• Zinc carbonate reacts with nitric acid to produce zinc nitrate (Zn(NO₃)₂), carbon dioxide (CO₂), and water (H₂O) as products.
• The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is:

${\mathrm{ZnCO}}_3\left(\mathrm{s}\right)+2{\mathrm{HNO}}_3\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)\to \mathrm{Zn}{\left({\mathrm{NO}}_3\right)}_2\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)+{\mathrm{CO}}_2\left(\mathrm{g}\right)+{\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}\left(\mathrm{l}\right)$
