You put precipitation in the wrong place the answer is D+A (number 4)
1. The reaction for this would be:
Sn + 4 HNO₃ → SnO₂ + 4 NO₂ + 2 H₂O
The first observation would be bubbling of the solution and brown acrid smoke is produced due to the presence of NO₂ gas. Another observation would be the presence of a white solid which is SnO₂.
2. Heating was required to get rid of the H₂O. When all moisture is gone, you weigh the sample. Afterwhich, 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.
Answer:
Density = mass/volume
= 44/22.4
= 1.96 gram/liter
The density of the Carbon Dioxide at S.T.P. (Standard Temperature and Volume) is 1.96 gram/liter.
