Answer:

Tin (IV) Nitrate

General Formulas and Concepts:

Chem

  • Reading a Periodic Table
  • Identifying Polyatomic Ions
  • Writing chemical compounds
  • Determining charges

Step-by-step explanation:

Sn has 2 general forms in charges: Sn²⁺ and Sn⁴⁺ as it is a Post-Transition metal.

Nitrate, NO₃⁻, has a 1 minus charge.

To balance out these charges from the given compound, we know that there are going to be 4 nitrates to balance out a charge. +4 and -4 equals 0, so the charge of Sn would be +4.

Therefore, our compound name would be Metal (Oxidation Number) polyatomic ion:

Tin (IV) Nitrate
