X-ray diffraction study of aqueous zinc(II) nitrate

Abstract
The structures of the hydrated zinc(II) and nitrate ions in 4.72 mol dm–3 aqueous Zn(NO3)2 have been determined by X-ray diffraction. Octahedral coordination in Zn2+ aq is confirmed and the average Zn—Owater distance is 2.17 (4)Å; there is no evidence for coordination by NO 3. Approximately three water molecules are hydrogen bonded to each nitrate O-atom.
