  2. Tin (II) chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tin(II)_chloride

    A solution of tin(II) chloride containing a little hydrochloric acid is used for the tin-plating of steel, in order to make tin cans. An electric potential is applied, and tin metal is formed at the cathode via electrolysis. Tin(II) chloride is used as a mordant in textile dyeing because it gives brighter colours with some dyes e.g. cochineal ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cranberry_glass

    Vintage cranberry glass bowl The beaker with lid made from Gold Ruby is attributed to Johann Kunckel. Cranberry glass or ' Gold Ruby ' glass is a red glass made by adding gold salts or colloidal gold to molten glass. Tin, in the form of stannous chloride, is sometimes added in tiny amounts as a reducing agent. The glass is used primarily in ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tin

    Tin(II) chloride (also known as stannous chloride) is the most important commercial tin halide. Illustrating the routes to such compounds, chlorine reacts with tin metal to give SnCl 4 whereas the reaction of hydrochloric acid and tin produces SnCl 2 and hydrogen gas.

    Purple of Cassius – formed by precipitating a mixture of gold, stannous and stannic chlorides, with alkali. Used for glass coloring; Realgar – arsenic disulfide, an ore of arsenic. Regulus of antimony; Resin of copper – copper(I) chloride (cuprous chloride), formed by heating copper with corrosive sublimate.

  6. Angel gilding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angel_Gilding

    Still from the instructional video "Creating a Mirror on Glass: Silver & Gold" Angel gilding is gilding glass or gold plating by electroless chemical deposition. Gold chloride is dissolved in water, mixed with other chemicals and poured on clean glass that has been treated with stannous chloride. [1] The gold layer is delicate and usually ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purple_of_Cassius

    Generally, the preparation of this material involves gold being dissolved in aqua regia, then reacted with a solution of tin(II) chloride. The tin(II) chloride reduces the chloroauric acid from the dissolution of gold in aqua regia to a colloid of elemental gold supported on tin dioxide to give a purple precipitate or coloration. When used as a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold_compounds

    Au(III) (referred to as the auric) is a common oxidation state, and is illustrated by gold(III) chloride, Au 2 Cl 6. The gold atom centers in Au(III) complexes, like other d 8 compounds, are typically square planar, with chemical bonds that have both covalent and ionic character. Gold(I,III) chloride is also known, an example of a mixed-valence ...

  9. Reducing agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reducing_agent

    The following table provides the reduction potentials of the indicated reducing agent at 25 °C. For example, among sodium (Na), chromium (Cr), cuprous (Cu +) and chloride (Cl −), it is Na that is the strongest reducing agent while Cl − is the weakest; said differently, Na + is the weakest oxidizing agent in this list while Cl is the strongest.
