Answer 3

Tin is relatively unaffected by both water and oxygen at room temperatures. It does not rust, corrode, or react in any other way. so used to coat other metals for protection. At higher temperatures, the metal reacts with both steam and oxygen to form tin oxide.
tin is attacked only slowly by dilute acids such as hydrochloric acid (HCl) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4). its diluting property makes tin a good protective covering. It does not react with acids as rapidly as do many other kinds of metals, such as iron, and can be used, therefore, as a covering for those metals.

Tin dissolves easily in concentrated acids, however, and in hot alkaline solutions, such as hot, concentrated potassium hydroxide (KOH). The metal also reacts with the halogens to form compounds such as tin chloride and tin bromide. It also forms compounds with sulfur, selenium, and tellurium.
