Zinc Sulfide Precipitation

ZnSO4 + Na2S → ZnS↓ + Na2SO4

अवलोकन

Zinc sulfate reacts with sodium sulfide to form a white precipitate of zinc sulfide (Ksp = 2 × 10⁻²⁵). ZnS occurs naturally as the mineral sphalerite, the most important zinc ore. Zinc sulfide phosphors are used in cathode ray tubes and luminous paints.

रोजमर्रा का उदाहरण

Glow-in-the-dark toys and watch dials often use zinc sulfide phosphors doped with copper, which glow green after light exposure.

औद्योगिक महत्व

Sphalerite (ZnS) is the world's most important zinc ore. ZnS phosphors are used in display technology, X-ray screens, and luminescent coatings.
