The material structure described by Zn(OH)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1 space group. There are two inequivalent Zn sites. In the first Zn site, Zn(1) is bonded to one O(1), one O(2), one O(3), and one O(4) atom to form corner-sharing ZnO4 tetrahedra. In the second Zn site, Zn(2) is bonded to one O(1), one O(2), one O(3), and one O(4) atom to form corner-sharing ZnO4 tetrahedra. There are four inequivalent H sites. In the first H site, H(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O(1) atom. In the second H site, H(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O(2) atom. In the third H site, H(3) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O(3) atom. In the fourth H site, H(4) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O(4) atom. There are four inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Zn(1), one Zn(2), and one H(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Zn(1), one Zn(2), and one H(2) atom. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Zn(1), one Zn(2), and one H(3) atom. In the fourth O site, O(4) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Zn(1), one Zn(2), and one H(4) atom. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
