tin Sn 118.69 Tin by Scott Bower Number of Protons/Electrons: 50 Number of Neutrons: 69
Uses used to coat other metals to prevent corrosion or other chemical action (tin cans are made from tin coated steel) tin salts sprayed onto glass are used to produce electrically conductive coatings. Tin plate over steel is use to make cans for food. Molten tin is used to float molten glass to produce window glass. the chloride (SnCl2.H2O) is used as a reducing agent and as a mordant in calico printing Properties Tin has a melting point of 231.9681°C, boiling point of 2270°C When tin is cooled below 13.2°C, it slowly changes form from the white form to the gray Tin is a silvery-white metal tin has a cubic structure. Tin is resistant to attack by sea and soft tap water, but it will corrode in strong acids. properties and uses
