Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

When adding aqueous $\text{NaOH}$ to the dissolution of $\text{Zn}{\left(\text{OH}\right)}_{\text{2}}$, more $\text{Zn}{\left(\text{OH}\right)}_{\text{2}}$ dissolves, does this violate Le Chatelier’s principle has to be checked.

Le Chatelier’s principle:

When a chemical equilibrium system is disturbed, it reattains equilibrium by undergoing a overall reaction that reduces the effect of the disturbance.
