    The coefficient that should be inserted in front of chlorine is 2

    Explanation:

    Sn + 2Cl₂ → SnCl₄

    As we have 4 atoms of chlorine in product side, we need 4 Cl in reactant side.

    Chlorine is a diatomic atom, so if we have 2 mol of it, we are having 4 atoms of Cl.

    The law of conservation of mass must be respected in every chemical equation
