What is the method of preparing soluble salts?
Titration: acid + alkali → alkali metal salt + water
What is the method of preparing insoluble salts?
Precipitation: Mix, filter, wash, dry
What is the first step in preparing zinc chloride crystals?
Add excess zinc powder to dilute hydrochloric acid
What do we do after adding excess zinc in the preparation of zinc chloride?
Filter the mixture to remove unreacted zinc
What is done after filtering the mixture in the preparation of zinc chloride?
Heat the filtrate to partially evaporate water
What is the final step in preparing zinc chloride crystals?
Dry between filter papers or in an oven at low temperature
What is the reason for adding excess zinc in the preparation of zinc chloride?
To ensure all the acid is used up
