What is charge on the cation sncl4

The charge on the cation is +4

Explanation:

An ion is formed when a neutral atom looses or gains electrons.

We are given a chemical compound having chemical formula of

It is formed by the combination of tin ions and chloride ions.

Tin is the 50th element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of

This element will loose 4 electrons to form ion

Chlorine is the 17th element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of

This element will gain 1 electron to form ion

Thus, the charge on the cation is +4

the positions which points up in upward carbon and down in downward carbon are axial

and vice versa holds true for equatorial positions

so the correct answer with labelled diagram will be

answer:

technetium is the most reactive. this is followed by silver. the least reactive out of these three elements is strontium.
