Problem- In acidic solution, the bromate ion can be used to react with a number of metal ions. One such reaction is
BrO3-(aq)+Sn2+(aq)→Br-(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:
BrO3-(aq)+Sn2+(aq)→Br-(aq)+Sn4+(aq)
What are the coefficients of the six species in the balanced equation above? Remember to include H2O(l) and H+(aq) in the appropriate blanks.
Please illustrate work as well as walk me during the problem so that I can follow and understand it
