Write the equations for the reaction of Zinc with each of the following:
Sodium hydroxide solution

Open in App

Solution

Zinc metal reacts with Sodium hydroxide( $NaOH$ ) solution to form Sodium zincate with the evolution of hydrogen gas.
The reaction is:
$\underset{Z i n c}{Z n (s)} + \underset{S o d i u m h y d r o x i d e}{2 N a O H (a q)} \to \underset{S o d i u m z i n c a t e}{N a_{2} Z n O_{2} (a q)} + \underset{H y d r o g e n}{H_{2} (g)}$
