A comparison between pure zinc acetate on soda-lime float glass and silica glass at 400°C, Figure 25 shows, that they have the same crystal volume, as the 2 curves, are nearly the same, this can be taken as an evidence, that sodium diffusion from the soda- lime glass into the layer, does not influence the crystal growth, Figure 25.
Why i chose zinc is because it seemed interesting to me in the things it was used for.
The prepared zinc powder could easily be removed from the cathode surface and was washed in distilled water for several times until all possible existing alkaline solution was removed from the powder particles. This was proved by addition of few droplets of phenolphthalein to the ablution water. After that, the powder was treated with an alcohol-acetone mixture (ethanol-acetone = 1:1) to remove water, then dried for 2 h in 100 °C, weighed, and stored in a polyethylene plastic bag to avoid further oxidation. A different weight of Zn powder was obtained in each experiment, the current efficiency (CE) was calculated using Eqs. (1) and (2) as follows:
The doping iron increases the capacity of batteries, but this diminishes with extensive cycling. The detrimental effect of iron can be avoided by annealing. Ruthenium is another transition metal which can be used as a dopant which enhances the stability of the crystal structure. It also increases conductivity and improve performance of the battery. Chromium is another transition metal that can be used as a dopant. It reduces the ordering of lithium ions in LiMn2O4 spinel and this stabilizes the spinel structure. It also increases capacity retention during cycling. Zinc is used as a dopant in cathode materials as it has a stabilizing effect on the crystal structure. Addition of Zinc oxide also prevents reaction between the electrode and electrolyte. Titanium along with cobalt also acts as a stabilizer and also reduces dissolution of electrodes. Zirconium reduces reactivity levels between the electrode and the electrolyte and performs the same function as titanium by stabilizing the crystal structure. Aluminium is one of the most commonly used dopants in cathode materials. It performs the function of increasing capacity of the electrodes. The addition of aluminium improves electrode kinetics, structural modifications and microstructural effects. Some of the other dopants include Magnesium and Lathanum which increases the lattice parameter and improves the stability of the crystal structure and also
Zinc Iodide (ZnI2) was an interesting binary compound to experiment with. In this experiment, weakly acidified water (25mL distilled water with 18 drops 5M acetic acid solution) was used as an aid to bring molecules of the zinc and iodide atoms together, by dissolving iodine molecules, so that bonding would transpire to produce a reaction. Deprived of water, the Zn and I2 molecules would not be capable of moving close enough to each other, and a reaction would not occur. Deprived of acid, the reaction of Zn + I2 would have resulted in 2HI(aq) rather than ZnI2 (s), and it wouldn’t have appeared to follow the Law of
All the data was fitted satisfactorily using the equivalent circuit shown in Fig. 7. Where, Rs, CPE1 and R1 represent solution resistance, a constant- phase element corresponding to the double layer capacitance and the charge transfer resistance, respectively. CPE2 and R2 were added to account for the electrical elements of the outer layer. The following formula expressed the electrode impedance, Z, as follow:
Mineralogical composition for the bulk samples powder were determined using X-ray diffraction (Philips X-ray diffraction equipment model PW/171) with monochromator, Cu k -á radiation (1.542 =גÅ) at 40 kV and 35 mA at X-ray diffraction lab, Physics Department, Assiut Faculty of Science, Egypt. The patterns were recorded from 4 to 90°2è. In addition, reflection peaks were between 4 and 902Ѳ, of 0.06◦/min speed. Corresponding spacing (d,Å) and the relative intensities (I/I°) were also obtained [Moore and Reynolds,1997].
4. Acetic acid was used in the synthesis of zinc iodide because an addition of a weak acid prevents the formation of Zn(OH)2 that occurs when zinc and iodine react with deionized water. The formation of the precipitate inhibits the production of the product ZnI2 and may make it seem as if the basic law of conservation of mass was not obeyed. Since acetic acid and water are both volatile, they can both be easily removed from the solution by heating which would possibly leave behind more ZnI2 . When the acid is not added, it is interesting to observe the Zn(OH)2 precipitate that is formed.
Zinc is the element I have chosen for this paragraph. Zinc is a chemical element with symbol Zn and atomic number 30. It is the first element in group 12 of the periodic table. In some respects, zinc is chemically similar to magnesium: both elements exhibit only one normal oxidation state, and the Zn²⁺ and Mg²⁺ ions are of similar size. Zinc is the 24th most abundant element in Earth's crust and has five stable isotopes. The most common zinc ore is sphalerite, a zinc sulfide mineral. The largest workable lodes are in Australia, Asia, and the United States. Zinc is refined by froth flotation of the ore, roasting, and final extraction using electricity. Zinc has an atomic mass of 65.39. Zinc has a boiling point of 1180 K and a melting point
Zinc (Zn). A chemical element consisting of atomic number 30. A lustrous silvery-white metal that is brittle and crystalline, but may differ from temperatures. Large quantities of zinc are found in soils, even farmland soil, resulting the animals to absorb concentrations of zinc in which are damaging to their health. Adding to that, water-soluble zinc that is found in soils may also contaminate groundwater. Zinc is not only a threat to cattle but also to plant species. Most plants have a zinc uptake, and the plants’ systems cannot handle zinc absorption that exceeds the uptake, due to the accumulation of zinc in soils. In these types of soils where the ratio equals to a zinc-rich soil, only a limited number of plants have a chance of survival.
Zinc, in commerce also spelter, is a chemical element with symbol Zn and atomic number 30. It is the first element of group 12 of the periodic table. In some respects zinc is chemically similar to magnesium: its ion is of similar size and its only common oxidation state is +2. Zinc is the 24th most abundant element in Earth's crust and has five stable isotopes. The most common zinc ore is sphalerite (zinc blende), a zinc sulfide mineral. The largest mineable amounts are found in Australia, Asia, and the United States. Zinc production includes froth flotation of the ore, roasting, and final extraction using electricity (electrowinning).
The samples were synthesized from a synthesis solution by dissolving 7.98 g sodium hydroxide pellets (A.R) and 11.01, 8.01, 6.79, 2.73, 1.64, 0.9 g of aluminum sulphate, aluminum chloride, aluminum isopropoxide, sodium aluminate, alumina and aluminum metal (Aldrich), respectively in 69.5 g deionized water in a beaker. The mixtures in the beaker were thoroughly mixed and a 50 g Ludox AS30 colloidal silica (Aldrich) was slowly added to the above solution under stirring at high speed. The molar composition of the resulting synthesis gel was 12Na2O: 100SiO2:2Al2O3: 500H2O. Prior to being transferred to a Teflon-lined stainless steel autoclave, the above synthesis solution was aged for 20 hr at room temperature and then hydrothermally treated
Because in the data above I concluded that Zn is the most reactive then Fe and the finally Ni I know that Zinc will displace Iron and Iron will displace Ni but Ni will not displace Iron. Because of this if we place one piece of each metal in the solution of Iron(II) nitrate which ever one reacts is the Zinc because the Zinc will be displacing the Iron but since the Ni cant displace Iron no reaction will occur when it is placed into the Iron nitrate.

To overcome this issue, many Azone-like compounds have been synthesized (55). Modification in the structure of Azone includes change in:
