Question

Sn4+(aq) + 2e− → sn2+(aq)which term best describes this reaction?ionizationneutralizationoxidationreduction

Answer 1

Reduction

Step-by-step explanation:

Gaining electrons means reduction. When the electrons are on the reactant side of the reaction, they are added to the other reactant. This indicates that the Sn^4+ is gaining electrons and is therefore reduced (reduction).
