Question
Learning goal 1: Sodium hydroxide reacts with zinc nitrate:2NaOH (aq) + Zn(NO3)2 (aq) → Zn(OH)2 (s) + 2NaNO3 (aq)Identify the precipitate. Zn(OH)NaOHZn(NO)NaNO
Solution
The precipitate in this reaction is Zn(OH)2. This is because it is denoted with a (s) after its formula, indicating that it is a solid. In a chemical reaction, the solid that forms in a solution is known as the precipitate.
