<p><b>New page</b></p><div>The chemistry of zinc is dominated by the +2 oxidation state. When compounds in this oxidation state are formed, the outer [[electron shell|shell]] ''s'' electrons are lost, yielding a bare zinc ion with the electronic configuration [Ar]3d<sup>10</sup>. In aqueous solution an octahedral complex, {{chem|[Zn(H|2|O)<sub>6</sub>]|2+}} is the predominant species. The [[Volatility (chemistry)|volatilization]] of zinc in combination with zinc chloride at temperatures above 285&nbsp;°C indicates the formation of {{chem|Zn|2|Cl|2}}, a zinc compound with a +1 oxidation state. No compounds of zinc in positive oxidation states other than +1 or +2 are known. Calculations indicate that a zinc compound with the oxidation state of +4 is unlikely to exist. Zn(III) is predicted to exist in the presence of strongly electronegative trianions; however, there exists some doubt around this possibility. But in 2021 another compound was reported with more evidence that had the oxidation state of +3 with the formula ZnBeB<sub>11</sub>(CN)<sub>12</sub>.</div>FuzzyBot
