Tin is a chemical element with the symbol Sn (from Latin: stannum) and atomic number 50. Tin is a silvery metal that characteristically has a faint yellow hue.

A container or enclosed space for storage.

Symbol Sn A crystalline, silvery metallic element obtained chiefly from cassiterite, and having two notable allotropic forms. Malleable white tin is the useful allotrope, but at temperatures below 13.2°C it slowly converts to the brittle gray allotrope. Tin is used to coat other metals to prevent corrosion and is a part of numerous alloys, such as soft solder, pewter, type metal, and bronze. Atomic number 50; atomic weight 118.71; melting point 231.93°C; boiling point 2,602°C; specific gravity (gray) 5.77, (white) 7.29; valence 2, 4. See Periodic Table.

(transitive) To cover with tin.

(transitive) To coat with solder

To coat with solder, in preparation for soldering, to ensure a good solder joint

To coat with solder, in order to consolidate braided wire, so as to make contact with all strands and reduce fragility of the fraying wire

An elementary substance found as an oxide in the mineral cassiterite, and reduced as a soft silvery-white crystalline metal, with a tinge of yellowish-blue, and a high luster. It is malleable at ordinary temperatures, but brittle when heated. It is softer than gold and can be beaten out into very thin strips called tinfoil. It is ductile at 2120, when it can be drawn out into wire which is not very tenacious; it melts at 4420, and at a higher temperature burns with a brilliant white light. Air and moisture act on tin very slightly. The peculiar properties of tin, especially its malleability, its brilliancy and the slowness with which it rusts make it very serviceable. With other metals it forms valuable alloys, as bronze, gun metal, bell metal, pewter and solder. It is not easily oxidized in the air, and is used chiefly to coat iron to protect it from rusting, in the form of tin foil with mercury to form the reflective surface of mirrors, and in solder, bronze, speculum metal, and other alloys. Its compounds are designated as stannous, or stannic. Symbol Sn (Stannum). Atomic weight 117.4.

Thin plates of iron covered with tin; tin plate.

Money.

To cover with tin or tinned iron, or to overlay with tin foil.

A silvery malleable metallic element that resists corrosion; used in many alloys and to coat other metals to prevent corrosion; obtained chiefly from cassiterite where it occurs as tin oxide

Metal container for storing dry foods such as tea or flour

Airtight sealed metal container for food or drink or paint etc.

Plate with tin

Yes, bins made of materials like plastic and metal can often be recycled.

Bins are used for storing goods or disposing of waste.

There are several types, including recycling bins, waste bins, and storage bins.

Not all bins are suitable for outdoor use; some are designed for indoor use like office bins.

Tin cans are made by coating steel or iron with tin in a thin layer to prevent rusting.

Tin is corrosion-resistant, malleable, and has a low melting point.

Tin is primarily used in soldering to join electronic components.

Tin pest is a phenomenon where tin deteriorates at low temperatures.

Tin is used in alloys like bronze and pewter.

The most common use is in the manufacturing of tinplate for cans and other containers.

Durability varies based on the materials used, such as plastic, metal, or wood.

Tin plating helps protect base metals from corrosion and oxidation.

Bins are sized according to their intended use, from small desk bins to large commercial dumpsters.
