Question

In acidic solution, the bromate ion can be used to react with anumber of metal ions. One such reaction is

BrO3%u2212(aq)+Sn2+(aq)%u2192Br%u2212(aq)+Sn4+(aq)

Since this reaction takes place in acidic solution, H2O(l) andH+(aq) will be involved in the reaction. Places for these speciesare indicated by the blanks in the following restatement of theequation:

BrO3%u2212(aq)+Sn2+(aq)+%u2212%u2212%u2212%u2192Br%u2212(aq)+Sn4+(aq)+%u2212%u2212%u2212

Part A What are the coefficients of the reactants and productsin the balanced equation above? Remember to include H2O(l) andH+(aq) in the appropriate blanks. Your answer should have sixterms. Enter the equation coefficients in order separated by commas(e.g., 2,2,1,4,4,3).
