Chapter 15.4, Problem 37PP
    What we call "tin cans" are really iron cans coated with a thin layer of tin. The anode is a bar of tin, and the cathode is the iron can. An electrical current is used to oxidize the Sn to Sn 2 + in solution, where the Sn 2 + is reduced to produce a thin coating of Sn on the can. a. What half-reaction takes place to tin plate an iron can? b. Why is the iron can the cathode? c. Why is the tin bar the anode?
