How do you write the hydrolysis equation for Zinc Sulfate (a slightly acidic Salt)?

Thank you. :)

simple:

Zn2+(aq) + 2H2O(l) ⇌ Zn(OH)2(aq) + 2H+(aq)


not simple:

Zn(H2O)42+(aq) + H2O(l) ⇌ Zn(H2O)3OH+(aq) + H3O+(aq)

Thank you! Repped.

How have you learnt how to do this at this level? :p There goes my chemistry state ranking! :D
