No
It would be more correct to say that Zinc is an element
Water cannot be used to determine the density of zinc chloride because zinc chloride is soluble in water. This would lead to inaccurate results as the volume of the zinc chloride-water mixture would not represent the volume of the pure zinc chloride itself. It is better to use a non-reactive liquid with zinc chloride to accurately measure its density.
Yes, it does sink in water :). hope it helps you in chemistry :)
Zinc is an element. The "mossy" part is an adjective describing its physical form, which is small irregular granules formed by pouring molten zinc into cold water.
To determine the density of 10 grams of granular zinc, you would divide the mass (10g) by the volume. First, measure the volume of the zinc using a graduated cylinder. Then, divide the mass by the volume to calculate the density (Density = Mass/Volume).
The element that has half as many protons as zinc would be copper. Zinc has 30 protons, while copper has 29 protons. This means that copper has one less proton than zinc, making it the element with half as many protons.
For example, water reacts with zinc, releasing hydrogen, an element.
30 protons means element 30 from the periodic table, which is Zinc. Although it usually doesn't have 30 neutrons, and I doubt that would be a stable isotope. Stable zinc isotopes have 34 and 36 neutrons.
Yes, the element of Zinc is metal, therefore it is a solid.
Yes, zinc is naturally found in the Earth's crust. It is commonly found in minerals such as sphalerite, smithsonite, hemimorphite, and zincite. Zinc is also present in certain foods, water sources, and in the human body as an essential trace element.
A more reactive element can displace a less reactive element from a compound, according to the reactivity series. For example, metals like magnesium and zinc can displace hydrogen from water or acids.
zinc is an element on its own
