The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the hydrolysis of stannic chloride (SnCl₄) and the addition of compound "A" that represses this hydrolysis, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Hydrolysis Reaction The hydrolysis of stannic chloride is represented by the reaction: \[ \text{SnCl}_4 + 4 \text{H}_2\text{O} \rightarrow \text{Sn(OH)}_4 + 4 \text{HCl} \] This indicates that stannic chloride reacts with water to form stannic hydroxide and hydrochloric acid. **Hint:** Recognize the products formed during hydrolysis to understand the reaction's context. ### Step 2: Identify the Role of Compound "A" The question states that the hydrolysis can be repressed by adding a compound "A". This means that "A" should be a compound that can interact with SnCl₄ in a way that prevents its reaction with water. **Hint:** Consider compounds that can form stable complexes with SnCl₄ or alter its reactivity. ### Step 3: Analyze Possible Compounds for "A" We need to determine what "B" could be when SnCl₄ reacts with "A". The options provided include: 1. Stannic hydroxide (Sn(OH)₄) 2. Stannous chloride (SnCl₂) 3. H₂SnCl₆ (a complex) 4. SnOHCl Among these, we should focus on the complex formation that can occur when SnCl₄ interacts with "A". **Hint:** Look for compounds that are known to form stable complexes with metal chlorides. ### Step 4: Determine the Correct Compound "A" The addition of a Lewis base or a ligand can help in forming a complex, thus preventing hydrolysis. One such compound that can form a complex with SnCl₄ is H₂SnCl₆ (tin(IV) chloride complex). Thus, the reaction can be represented as: \[ \text{SnCl}_4 + \text{A} \rightarrow \text{H}_2\text{SnCl}_6 \] where "A" is a suitable ligand or base that stabilizes the stannic chloride. **Hint:** Identify the nature of "A" based on its ability to form complexes with SnCl₄. ### Conclusion The compound "B" formed when SnCl₄ reacts with "A" is: \[ B = \text{H}_2\text{SnCl}_6 \] ### Final Answer The answer is **H₂SnCl₆**.
