HEYA MATE!!
you think is not used to prepare the hydrogen gas because the pure zinc is non porous so the reaction is too slow and hence some impurities like Copper are mixed with zinc to increase the speed of reaction copper acts as a catalyst in this reaction copper does this by increasing the surface area.
