What is the balanced equation for zinc hydroxide react with excess sodium hydroxide?

There is no reaction , because of the Common Ion Effect. The Common Ion is the Hydroxide.


What is the predicted effect on the reaction of zinc nitrate and excess sodium hydroxide?

The reaction of zinc nitrate and excess sodium hydroxide begins with precipitation of zinc hydroxide ( Zn(OH)2 ), followed by dissolvement after adding excess sodium hydroxide ( 2 OH- ) to formation of zinc aat-ions ( [Zn(OH)4]2- )

Is zinc a product or reactant?

It may be either a reactant or a product depending on what the reaction is. If you react elemental zinc with sulfuric acid to form zinc sulfate and hydrogen, then it is a product. If you react aqueous zinc sulfate with sodium hydroxide to form solid zinc hydroxide and sodium sulfate, then it is a reactant.


Will Sodium hydroxide react with copper?

No. Zinc and aluminum will react though.


Is zinc sulfate a reactant or a product?
