Appearance
Tin oxide is a white powder. This colourless, diamagnetic solid is amphoteric. Tin dioxide occurs naturally but is purified by reduction to the metal followed by burning tin in air.
Solubility
Stannic oxide is insoluble in water but soluble in concentrated sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid. Tin dioxide reacts vigorously with strong reducing agents and is incompatible with chlorine trifluorid
Uses
Tin oxide is the most important raw material in tin chemistry. Tin dioxide is used as a catalyst, in powder form is used as a polishing agent for glass, ceramic and steel. It is also used as white pigment for glaze and ceramic indutry.
