Heating Zinc Oxide

Aim: Is to see what change happens when we heat Zinc Oxide?

Equipment: Bunsen Burner, Heat mat, tripod, safety Glasses, Crucible, Crucible Holder and Zinc Oxide

Results/Observation: The Zinc Oxide was white in the beginning when cool but as it heated up the Zinc started to unfold a yellow-ish green colour but as it cooled back down the Zinc had returned to its original white colour.

Discussion: When heated, the Electrons in Zinc move to other Levels, making it change colour.
