TEST YOURSELF : SALT FORM 4
1 (a) The equation shows the reaction between zinc and acid X. Acid X is a monoprotic acid.

Zn + Acid X → Salt Y + H2

Based on the equation,

(i) suggest acid X and identify salt Y.

[2 marks]
(ii) from your answer in 1(a)(i), write a chemical equation for the reaction
[2 marks]

(b) Diagram 1 shows a flow chart of zinc salts.

Reaction II + Acid W

Zinc salt
Diagram 1

All the three salts, ZnSO4, ZnCI, and Zn(NO3)2, in Diagram 1 can be converted to ZnCO3, by
reaction I, then ZnCO3 reacts with acid W to form a zinc salt through reaction II.

(i) By choosing one of the three salts in Diagram 1, suggest solution R to prepare zinc
carbonate, ZnCO3.
Write the chemical equation involved and describe a laboratory experiment to prepare
zinc carbonate, ZnCO3.
