Sn + 4 HNO₃ →  SnO₂ + 4 NO₂ + 2 H₂O


Heating was required to get rid of the H₂O. When all moisture is gone, you weigh the sample. After which, you further heat it to get ride of the oxygen. By doing this, you would know the individual mass of each element. Then, you can solve for the empirical formula of the oxide of tin.


Hope this helps best of luck :)

Bro Water droplets may grow as a result of additional condensation of water vapor when the particles collide. If enough collisions occur to produce a droplet with a fall velocity which exceeds the cloud updraft speed, then it will fall out of the cloud as precipitation.

Juliette [100K]
Ni(OH)₂ ⇄ Ni⁺² + 2 OH⁻
Ksp = [Ni⁺²][OH⁻]²  = S (2S)² = 4S³
where S is molar solubility.
at pH = 10 
[H⁺] = 10⁻¹⁰
[H⁺][OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴ 
so [OH⁻] = 10⁻⁴ M
Ksp = S [10⁻⁴ + 2S]²
Ksp is very small so the molar solubility of OH⁻ will be very small
so (10⁻⁴ + 2S) is about 10⁻⁴
so Ksp = S x 10⁻⁸
S = \frac{6 x 10^{-16} }{10^{-8} } = 6 x 10⁻⁸ M
