'SN' in the Periodic Table are the two elemental symbols for 'sulphur(S)' and ''nitrogen(N)'.

So SN is some form of sulphur/nitrogen compound.

However, I think you mean 'Sn'.

'Sn' is the symbol for 'Tin'. 'Sn' is the Latin initials of 'Stanum', which is the Latin word for 'Tin'.

NB When writing up chemical/elemental symbols, be careful!!!!

Single letter symbols are ALWAYS a CAPITAL letter.

Two letter symbols are written ; first letter is a CAPITAL letter and the second letter is small/lower case.

This is the IUPAC Internationally recognised system, and as shown in the PERIODIC Table.
