Does tin react with iron sulphate?
Yes, tin will react with sulphuric acid as it is reactive enough. Metals which are higher than hydrogen in the reactivity series will react with sulphuric acid.
Does iron react with tin nitrate?
iron being highly electropositive it does not react with covalent compound formed by two electropositive elements. that is tin nitride.

What metal is used in the reaction of metal and air?
Metals in the reactivity series from aluminium to copper react with oxygen in the air to form the metal oxide. Aluminium and Zinc reacts very quickly, Iron reacts slowly at room temperature. Tin, Lead and Copper reacts with Oxygen in air when heated. Silver, Gold and Platinum do not react with Oxygen in air
What compound does tin carbon and oxygen make?
Tin carbonate - SnCO3
What metal reacts with oxygen but does not react with water?
For example uranium react with oxygen but not with water.
Does lead react with tin nitrate?
