∙ 13y agoTin (Sn) can be expressed in an ion as Sn4+ or Sn2+ as it can form both ions.
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoTin can form two types of cations with +2 or +4 charge
Wiki User
∙ 7y agoThe charge on Sn (tin) is zero, but once it combines it achieves an oxidation state of either 4+ or 2+. The 4+ is more stable, as in SnO2, but the 2+ state is also very common, as in SnCl2.

What is the symbol of tin?
Sn=====
What is the correct name for the compound SnF4?
First we have to start by determining what charge does Sn have to form this compound. Remember that Fluorine has -1 charge (F-1) and there are 4 of them. That means that Sn must have a +4 charge; therefore, the compound would be called: Tin(IV) fluoride or Stannic fluoride.
Formula for Tin IV Chloride?
Formula: Sn(HCO3)4
What is the element symbol for tin?
Sn is the symbol for tin. (from Latin: stannum)
Chemical formula for stannous nitrate?
The chemical formula of stannous nitrate is Sn(NO3)2.
What is the formula for tin II hypochlorite?
Sn(CLO3)2 Tin (II) has a positive 2 charge and Chlorate has a (-1) charge so you need to cholrates to one Tin.
What type of reaction does Sn 2 plus - Sn 4 plus represent?
6
What is element Sn on periodic table?
sn stands for tin and can have a varying charge. Its atomic number is 50 and is a member of the carbon group. Its atomic mass is 118.7.
What is the oxidation number of Sn in SnF2?
-1 for each Cl, +2 for Sn
What is the symbol of tin?
Sn=====
What is the formula for tin (IV) chromate?
Sn(CrO4)2 Tin 4 means that the tin is a cation with a +4 charge. Chromate is a polyatomic ion with the formula (CrO4)-2. Since the tin ion has a +4 charge in this case, and the chromate ion has a -2 charge, there is a 1:2 ratio of tin ions to chromate ions.
Is tin III sulfate soluble in water?
The answer is yes because sulfate is only soluble to any positive ion and tin (Sn) happened to to be a cation with a positive 4 charge so that makes Sn(SO3)4 soluble .

What is the formula for tin nitride?
previous answer-> "tin(II)nitride --> SnN" what?? I'm pretty sure it's Sn3N2 Nitrogen (nitride) has -3 charge
What elements that have a symbol of Sn?
Sn is tin.
