In acidic solution, the sulfate ion can be used to react with a number of metal

Question

In acidic solution, the sulfate ion can be used to react with a number of metal ions. One such reaction is SO42(aq)+Sn2+(aq)H2SO3(aq)+Sn4+(aq) Since this reaction takes place in acidic solution, H2O(l) and H+(aq) will be involved in the reaction. Places for these species are indicated by the blanks in the following restatement of the equation: SO42(aq)+Sn2+(aq)+ H2SO3(aq)+Sn4+(aq)+

What are the coefficients of the reactants and products in the balanced equation above? Remember to include H2O(l) and H+(aq) in the appropriate blanks. Your answer should have six terms.

Enter the equation coefficients in order separated by commas (e.g., 2,2,1,4,4,3). Include coefficients of 1, as required, for grading purposes.

Explanation / Answer

SO4{2-}(aq) + Sn{2+}(aq) + 4 H{+} ? H2SO3(aq) + Sn{4+}(aq) + H2O

The coefficients ae (1,1,4,1,1,1)
