A grey deposit slowly forms on the surface of the zinc. I think it's zinc chloride + platinum?

∙ 12y agoZinc is higher up the reactivity series and is therefore able to displace platinum from its salt. The metals simply swap over to form zinc chloride and platinum.

What compound is formed when zinc and oxygen combine?
The chemical formula ZnN don't exist; the zinc nitride has the chemical formula Zn3N2.
What elements are present in zinc nitrate?
Zinc nitrate ( Zn(NO3)2) has the elements, zinc, nitrogen and oxygen.
What is the scientific name of zinc and oxygen?
Oxygen is the scientific name. Chemically, you can describe it as O2, as it exists of 2 oxygen molecules with a double (covalent?) binding if I'm not mistaken. An oxygen molecule has 2 free electrons, so combine two and you have a nice stable structure called oxygen. Scematic: O=O or O2
What is the reaction of zinc and oxygen?
Zinc Oxide. Whenever a metal reacts with oxygen, it bonds them both together, like magnesium+oxygen=magnesium oxide
What does zinc plus oxygen equals?
Zinc is a metal and Oxygen is a non-metal.
What happens to the zinc oxide when zinc is formed?
It is 'freed' from oxygen
What is the equation for the reaction of benzoic acid and zinc oxide?
the oxygen of the zinc will combine with acid group of the acid as the ZnOis basic in nature
What compound is formed when zinc and oxygen combine?
The chemical formula ZnN don't exist; the zinc nitride has the chemical formula Zn3N2.
What happens if you combine fuel and oxygen?
Nothing happens if you combine a fuel and oxygen. However, if you then add a source of energy such as a spark of sufficient power, you get a fire, or, in an enclosed space, an explosion.
When iron and oxygen combine to form rust what is are the reactants?
What happens when iron and oxygen react?
What happens when you mix iron and Zinc Oxide and heat it?
a redox reaction takes place ( one gains oxygen and the other looses oxygen) the zinc (oxide) is displaced and the iron becomes iron oxide and zinc oxide becomes zinc
What happens when zinc is exposed to oxygen and water?
fire hazard
What elements are present in zinc nitrate?
Zinc nitrate ( Zn(NO3)2) has the elements, zinc, nitrogen and oxygen.
Will zinc combine with other elements?
The ONLY elements that will not combine with other elements under normal conditions are the inert noble gases on the far right column of the periodic table, they will not even combine with themselves like other gases do. The reason for this is they are the only elements whose valence shell is entirely full of electrons. So of course zinc will combine with other elements, as its valence shell is not full.What might be confusing you is that zinc is commonly used as a coating on steel and iron to prevent rusting. What you may not know is that the zinc does this because it corrodes much faster than the steel or iron can rust, combining with the oxygen before the steel or iron could combine with the oxygen. Zinc can even (to a limited extent) combine with the oxygen in the existing rust, reducing it back to iron!Zinc very strongly combines with other elements.
What happens when two oxygen molecules combine to form a molecule of oxygen?
Chemical bonds are formed and energy is released.
What is the scientific name of zinc and oxygen?
Oxygen is the scientific name. Chemically, you can describe it as O2, as it exists of 2 oxygen molecules with a double (covalent?) binding if I'm not mistaken. An oxygen molecule has 2 free electrons, so combine two and you have a nice stable structure called oxygen. Scematic: O=O or O2
What is the chemical behavior of zinc?
It is a fairly reactive metal that will combine with oxygen and other non-metals, and will react with dilute acids to release hydrogen.
