How is Zinc chloride formed in the lab and please tell the steps

When zinc metal is reacted with hydrochloric acid, hydrogen gas is released and an aqueous solution of zinc chloride is produced. ... It is important that all of the zinc used be reacted and that large excess amounts of hydrochloric acid not be used.

Anhydrous zinc chloride is synthesized by treating zinc with hydrogen chloride. Whereas, hydrated and aqueous forms of zinc chloride are prepared by treating zinc with hydrochloric acid. Zinc metal could either be in the form of zinc sulfide or zinc oxide

Have a nice Day , Hope this helped you I would appreciate it if you could mark my answer brainliest

c8h10 is your answerr

metals are good conductor of electricity. it has free electrons on their surface. according to electron pool theory, each atom present in a metal crystal losses all of its valence electron and as a result a pool of free is form. these pool of electrons are free to move and   conduct electricity easily   while making metal as good conductor.

the correct answer is a. the ability of electrons to flow throughout the metal.
