  2. Zinc - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zinc

    Zinc is a chemical element with the symbol Zn and atomic number 30. ... Extremely pure zinc reacts only slowly at room temperature with acids. [50] Strong acids, ...

  3. Zinc compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zinc_compounds

    The reaction of zinc with water is slowed by this passive layer. When this layer is corroded by acids such as hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid, the reaction proceeds with the evolution of hydrogen gas. [1] [9] Zn + 2 H + → Zn 2+ + H 2. Zinc reacts with alkalis as with acids.

  4. Organozinc chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organozinc_chemistry

    The reaction is effected with zinc. The key zinc-intermediate formed is a carbenoid (iodomethyl)zinc iodide which reacts with alkenes to afford the cyclopropanated product. The rate of forming the active zinc species is increased via ultrasonication since the initial reaction occurs at the surface of the metal.

  5. Reactivity series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactivity_series

    The most reactive metals, such as sodium, will react with cold water to produce hydrogen and the metal hydroxide: 2 Na (s) + 2 H 2 O (l) →2 NaOH (aq) + H 2 (g) Metals in the middle of the reactivity series, such as iron , will react with acids such as sulfuric acid (but not water at normal temperatures) to give hydrogen and a metal salt ...

  6. Zinc oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zinc_oxide

    Zinc oxide is an inorganic compound with the formula Zn O.It is a white powder which is insoluble in water. ZnO is used as an additive in numerous materials and products including cosmetics, food supplements, rubbers, plastics, ceramics, glass, cement, lubricants, [12] paints, sunscreens, ointments, adhesives, sealants, pigments, foods, batteries, ferrites, fire retardants, semi conductors ...

    Given zinc’s uncertain benefits and potential drawbacks, Gulick says he doesn’t routinely recommend it to his patients. People who want to ease their symptoms are probably better off with over ...

  9. Reformatsky reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reformatsky_reaction

    The oxygen on an aldehyde or ketone coordinates to the zinc to form the six-member chair like transition state 3. A rearrangement occurs in which zinc switches to the aldehyde or ketone oxygen and a carbon-carbon bond is formed 4. Acid workup 5,6 removes zinc to yield zinc(II) salts and a β-hydroxy-ester 7. [5]
