Description
Inorganic compound, double salt of transitional metal zinc, alkaline metal sodium and inorganic sulfuric acid. From water solutions crystallizes as tetrahydrate.
Minerals
Occurs in nature as changoite mineral.
Precursors
Reaction between zinc and sodium sulfates
Chemical equation:
100.00
g of zinc-sodium sulfate tetrahydrate
а 76.57
g of zinc sulfate heptahydrate
and 85.79
g of sodium sulfate decahydrate
is required.Dissolve compounds in hot water apart and then mix solutions into one container with intense stirring. Cooling or evaporation of a solution will cause double salt crystallyzation.
Influence of pH level
Addition of ~0.2-0.5g of baking soda per 100g of solution leads to growing more transparent crystals, as impurities form a precipitate.
Notes
This compound is a good nutrient for molds, so a little amount of food preservative like potassium sorbate might be needed. Boiling after molds appear is also effective.
Storage conditions
Store in its original form or under several layers of varnish at average humidity and room temperature. Do not store in matchboxes or cotton wool and do not heat.
