Zinc Hydroxide as Amphoteric Acid with NaOH
Zn(OH)2 + 2NaOH → Na2[Zn(OH)4]
概述
Zinc hydroxide dissolves in excess sodium hydroxide to form the soluble tetrahydroxozincate complex. This demonstrates zinc hydroxide's acidic character. The initial white precipitate formed by adding NaOH to Zn²⁺ dissolves upon addition of excess base, a key observation in qualitative analysis.
