Fern Van Sant, DVM For the Birds 17480 Shelburne Way Los Gatos, Calif. 95030 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reprinted from the Proceedings of the International Aviculturists Society, January , 1997 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Zinc Trivia The element zinc is a naturally occurring metal widely distributed in nature. The atomic number of zinc is 30. It has an atomic weight of 65.37. Zinc is included in group 2B in the periodic chart. Zinc is a good reducing agent. Zinc dissolves in aqueous acids or bases. Zinc forms compounds in the +2 oxidation state. Zinc usually appears dull gray. It is moderately hard. Zinc is brittle at room temperatures and is a good conductor of electricity. The primary use of zinc is to coat iron or steel in a process called galvanization to prevent rust. Zinc protects steel and iron from rusting as long as contact is maintained because zinc is the stronger reducing agent of the two metals. "
