Yes, ferric acid (iron III) and tin can react to form different compounds, such as tin(II) chloride and iron(III) chloride. The reaction involves a redox process where iron(III) is reduced to iron(II) while tin is oxidized.


Is tin plate ferrous?

The tin is not, but the term tin plate usually refers to steel that's plated with tin. The steel is made from iron, and the term ferrous means having to do with iron.

Why does tin protects iron from corrosion?

Tin protects iron from corrosion through a process called sacrificial protection, where the tin acts as a sacrificial anode and corrodes instead of the iron. The tin forms a protective layer over the iron, preventing exposure to moisture and oxygen which are necessary for corrosion to occur. This sacrificial layer of tin can be periodically replaced to maintain the protective barrier.
