Tin and Lead are both metals with oxidation numbers of 2+ and 4+, so the two equations for Lead (Pb) are 2Pb + O2 ---> 2PbO and Pb + O2 ---> PbO2 The equations for Tin (Sn) look the same ... just substitute Sn where you see Pb.

What is the oxidation number Tin?

The oxidation number of tin can vary depending on the compound it is in. In its elemental form (Sn), tin has an oxidation number of 0. In some compounds, tin can exhibit oxidation numbers of +2 and +4.


Why do lead and tin have different oxidation numbers even they are not in the transition element area?

One rationalization is the "inert pair effect" - lead and tin have oxidation numbers of +2 and +4 . The inert pair effect also rationaliss the two oxidation numbers of +1 and +3 exhibited by gallium, indium and thallium. In compounds with the lower oxidation numebrs the s electrons are not removed.


What is the oxidation number of tin?

0 in the elemental form. +2 and +4 in its compounds


Is tin and lead more reactive than silver?

Yes, both tin and lead are more reactive than silver. Tin and lead are more prone to oxidation and reacting with other elements compared to silver. Silver is relatively unreactive, making it a popular choice for jewelry and coins due to its resistance to tarnishing.


Which is true when tin ion is reduced?

When a tin ion is reduced, it gains electrons and its oxidation number decreases. Tin typically forms a +4 oxidation state in compounds, so upon reduction, it becomes tin with a +2 oxidation state.


What are the common oxidation numbers for tin?

0 in the elemental form, +2 and +4 in its compounds


What is the oxidation number of tin in the compound Na2SnO2?

The oxidation number of tin in the compound Na2SnO2 is +2. This is because the total charge of the compound is 0 (since it is neutral) and the oxidation number of sodium is +1 and oxygen is -2. This means that the oxidation number of tin must be +2 to balance the charges.


Does tin contain lead?

No, tin does not contain lead. Tin is a separate element from lead and does not naturally contain lead in its composition.


What does tin and lead make?

Tin and lead makes pewter


Why is SnF2 stannous fluoride?

because tin is in +2 oxidation state (lower oxidation state of tin)
