The most common oxidation state of zirconium is +4. Zirconium readily forms the Zr4+ ion by losing four electrons.
Zirconium's common compounds are all those of zirconium(IV). Halides of zirconium(II) have been made under reducing conditions, but the existence of this compound is unlikely.

I think you would precipitate the zirconium as a zirconium hydroxide, Zr(OH)4, and make 2 moles of ammonia chloride, NH4CL. ZrOCl2 + NH3 + 3H2O --> 2NH4Cl + Zr(OH)4 This is a common sol-gel reaction.
Zirconium is an element - as are silver and lead. Therefore, zirconium is not silver nor lead and, conversely, silver is not zirconium, lead is not zirconium.
Zirconium is commonly used in nuclear reactors for its resistance to corrosion. It is also used in ceramics, refractory materials, and as an opacifier in glazes and enamels. In addition, zirconium compounds are used in catalysts, propellants, and in the production of high-performance alloys.
No. Zirconium is an element and so it contains only zirconium.
A metal tube/pipe made of zirconium or a zirconium alloy.
The price is depending on the chemical purity (common zirconium, nuclear grade, reagent for analysis, etc) or the form (sponge, powder, ingots) - 25-250 US $/kg.
Zirconium tetrachloride is obtained by the chlorination of zirconium dioxide (not zirconium carbide).
