Open publisher page 7 citations

Abstract

Cyclic voltammaetry of mixed tin(II)/tin(IV) solutions was investigated in 6M HCl on gold and mercury electrodes. It was found that the reduction of tin(II) to tin(iv) proceeded irreversibly while tin(II) to tin(IV) was reversible. Two forms of tin(IV) are postulated. The peak potential for the reduction of tin(IV) was a function of both tin(II) and tin(IV) while that for the oxidation of tin(II) was a function only of tin(II) concentration Potentials for all oxidations and reductions were a function of potential scan rate.
