Compounds+with+Zinc

It can be prepared in a state of high purity. It can be made in a variety of crystal shapes and sizes by burning zinc vapor in air. Zinc oxide is used in rubber and methanol. It is also used in paints, cosmetics, plastics, pharmaceuticals, and printing inks. It is also used in certain photocopying processes.  **Zinc Sulfate** - ZnSO4 Zinc sulfate is an intermediate compound in the production of zinc from its ores by the electrolytic process. It is used as a weed killer, in the manufacture of viscose rayon, and in dyeing. **Zinc Chloride** - ZnCl2 Zinc Chloride can be prepared by a direct reaction or by evaporating the aqueous solution formed in various reactions. It is very water absorbing and is used as a drying agent and as a flux. In aqueous solution it is used as a wood preservative. Zinc sulfide occurs in nature as the mineral sphalerite and may be prepared by treating solutions of zinc salts with hydrogen sulfide. It was long used as a white pigment. It has also been used in X-ray screens, in luminous dials for clocks and watches, and in fluorescent lights. **Hydrides** - ZnH2 zinc (II) hydride **Fluorides** - ZnF2 zinc (II) fluoride **Bromides -** ZnBr2 zinc (II) bromide **Iodides -** ZnI2 zinc (II) iodide **Oxides** - ZnO2 zinc (II) peroxide **Selenides** - ZnSe zinc (II) selenide **Tellurides** - ZnTe zinc (II) telluride zinc (III) nitride
