Best Answer

Sn + 2 NaOH + 4 H2O → Na2[Sn(OH)6] + 2 H2

The result is an inorganic white powder of Sodium Stannate(IV) or Disodium Hexahydroxyltin with molecular formula H6Na2O6Sn. Similar reactions occur when Tin Dioxide (SnO2) is also dissolved in a base .

Salt statistics:

Colour- White/ Colourless

Density-4.68 g/cm3

Molar Mass- 266.73 g/mol

The Stannate anion has an octahedral shape.

Use: Stabilizer for Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2).
