Granulated Zinc (Granules) 200 g
Granulated Zinc (Granules) 200 g (Product Code: SCI-759/333) is an analytical reagent zinc metal in granule form, used to generate hydrogen gas and to study metal reactivity in school and college chemistry laboratories. Chemistry teachers choose the 200 g pack for repeated class sets of gas-preparation experiments, and an MSDS is supplied with every pack. Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, supplies these granules along with the flasks and delivery tubes of a gas collection apparatus.

What Is Granulated Zinc Used For?
The standard use is the laboratory preparation of hydrogen: granulated zinc is placed in a flask fitted with a thistle funnel and delivery tube (or in a Kipp’s apparatus), dilute hydrochloric or sulfuric acid is added, and the gas is collected over water. A lighted splint held at the mouth of a test tube of the gas gives the familiar “pop”. Granules are preferred to powder here because they react steadily and are easy to separate from the acid afterwards.
Zinc granules also appear in reactivity-series comparisons with other metals, and in displacement reactions with copper sulfate solution, where a brown copper coating forms on the zinc. Adding a drop of copper sulfate to the acid noticeably speeds hydrogen evolution, a useful extension for senior students. Keep flames away from the gas outlet and rinse leftover granules with water before drying and storing them.
Supplier
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, is an Ambala, Haryana company that sources and supplies reagent metals and salts such as Granulated Zinc (Granules) 200 g. Schools setting up gas-preparation benches can request the granules, acids and glassware on one enquiry. Visit the ScienceLab profile to learn about the company.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Granulated Zinc (Granules) 200 g used for?
Granulated Zinc (Granules) 200 g is used mainly to prepare hydrogen gas with dilute hydrochloric or sulfuric acid, and for metal reactivity and copper-displacement experiments in school and college chemistry practicals.
Why use zinc granules instead of zinc powder for hydrogen?
Granulated Zinc (Granules) 200 g reacts with dilute acid at a steady, controllable rate, and unreacted granules are easy to remove and reuse. Powder reacts much faster, which makes gas collection harder to control in a class setting.
What grade and quantity does this pack contain?
Granulated Zinc (Granules) 200 g, code SCI-759/333, is an analytical reagent grade zinc in a 200 g pack. It is supplied with an MSDS covering safe handling, storage and disposal.
What is the shelf life of Granulated Zinc (Granules) 200 g?
Shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted. Keep Granulated Zinc (Granules) 200 g in a sealed container in a dry store, away from acids.
Who supplies Granulated Zinc (Granules) 200 g?
Granulated Zinc (Granules) 200 g is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, Haryana, India, to schools, colleges, laboratories and dealers across India and international markets.
