The Decomposition of Zinc Carbonate: Using Stoichiometry to Choose between Chemical Formulas
DeMeo, Stephen
Journal of Chemical Education, v81 n1 p119 Jan 2004
The existence of different stoichiometries in two basic zinc carbonates helps to explain their decomposition potential, and to select between the two compound formulas, which better describes zinc carbonate. The accuracy of the experiment makes it a viable means for students to perform various quantitative measurements.
