For these reactions I need mechanisms like "with curly arrows" like I-I bonds breaking and what happens next:
1. Sn + 2I2 -> SnI4 (Ac2O,AcOH, reflux)
2. SnI4 + 2PPh3 -> (PPh3)2SnI4 (CHCl3)
3. SnI4 + (Me2SO)2 -> SnI4(Me2SO)2 (CH2Cl2)

  • Voltaic cell question

    A reduction requires electrons so occurs at the cathode - tin reaction occurs at the cathode An oxidation needs to get rid of electrons and can do this at the anode - lithium reaction occurs at the anode A salt bridge is require to couple the two

  • Work done by Sn

    The given reaction is: Sn(s) + 2H+(aq) --> Sn2+(aq) + H2(g) Since the molar mass of Sn: 118.71g/mol, This means, 70.0g tin is:(50.0 g)/(118.71g/mol) = 0.42 mol Since one mole Tin reacts to form one mole H2, this means 0.42 mole H2 will be formed
