ZnO +NaOH =Na2 ZnO2+H2O balance the equation
Answers
The balanced chemical equation is, 2NaOH + ZnO ⇒ Na₂ZnO₂ + H₂O
We have to balance the chemical equation,
ZnO + NaOH ⇒ Na₂ZnO₂ + H₂O.
There are numerous methods to balance a chemical equation but Electron-ion method is one of the most appropriate ones.
Step 1 : ZnO ⇒ Na₂ZnO₂
or, ZnO ⇒ 2Na⁺ + ZnO₂²⁻ [ just remove 2Na⁺ from this half redox reaction]
or, ZnO ⇒ ZnO₂²⁻
To balance oxygen, add H₂O to the left side and 2H⁺ to the right side.
or, ZnO + H₂O ⇒ ZnO₂²⁻ + 2H⁺ ....(1)
Here, charge is already balanced so we don't need to balance electron to both sides.
Step 2 : NaOH ⇒ H₂O + 2Na⁺ [ we get it (2Na⁺) from first half redox reaction]
or, 2NaOH + 2H⁺ ⇒ H₂O + 2Na⁺ + H₂O
or, 2NaOH + 2H⁺ ⇒ 2H₂O + 2Na⁺ ....(2)
Add both equations we get,
2NaOH + ZnO + 2H⁺ ⇒ 2Na⁺ + ZnO₂²⁻ + H₂O
or, 2NaOH + ZnO ⇒ Na₂ZnO₂ + H₂O
Therefore the balanced chemical equation is, 2NaOH + ZnO ⇒ Na₂ZnO₂ + H₂O
