Zinc nitrate is usually prepared by dissolving zinc metal, zinc oxide, or related materials in nitric acid: Zn + 2 HNO 3 → Zn(NO 3) 2 + H 2 ZnO + 2 HNO 3 → Zn(NO 3) 2 + H 2 O. These reactions are accompanied by the hydration of the zinc nitrate. The anhydrous salt arises by the reaction of anhydrous zinc chloride with nitrogen dioxide: [1]
Given nitrate's low basicity, the tendency of metal nitrate complexes toward hydrolysis is expected. Thus copper(II) nitrate readily dissociates in aqueous solution to give the aqua complex: Cu(NO 3) 2 + 6 H 2 O → [Cu(H 2 O) 6](NO 3) 2. Pyrolysis of metal nitrates yields oxides. [18] Ni(NO 3) 2 → NiO + NO 2 + 0.5 O 2
Compounds with zinc in the oxidation state +1 are extremely rare. [5] The compounds have the formula RZn 2 R and they contain a Zn — Zn bond analogous to the metal-metal bond in mercury(I) ion, Hg 2 2+. In this respect zinc is similar to magnesium where low-valent compounds containing a Mg — Mg bond have been characterised. [6]
Zinc(II) forms a colorless tetraammine with the formula [Zn(NH 3) 4] 2+. [13] Like most zinc complexes, it has a tetrahedral structure. Hexaamminenickel is violet, and the copper(II) complex is deep blue. The latter is characteristic of the presence of copper(II) in qualitative inorganic analysis.
Copper(II) nitrate describes any member of the family of inorganic compounds with the formula Cu(NO 3) 2 (H 2 O) x. The hydrates are hygroscopic blue solids. Anhydrous copper nitrate forms blue-green crystals and sublimes in a vacuum at 150-200 °C. [5] [6] Common hydrates are the hemipentahydrate and trihydrate.
Devarda's alloy (CAS # 8049-11-4) is an alloy of aluminium (44% – 46%), copper (49% – 51%) and zinc (4% – 6%).. Devarda's alloy is used as reducing agent in analytical chemistry for the determination of nitrates after their reduction to ammonia under alkaline conditions.
Like oxide, fluoride is a highly basic anion [19] and is known to stabilize metal ions in high oxidation states. Both copper(III) and even copper(IV) fluorides are known, K 3 CuF 6 and Cs 2 CuF 6, respectively. [1] Some copper proteins form oxo complexes, which also feature copper(III). [20]
