Snn.

Brit.

/ˌɛsˈɛn/, U.S.

/ˌɛsˈɛn/

Origin: Formed within English, by clipping or shortening; modelled on a Latin lexical item. Etymon: tin n.

Etymology: Symbolic abbreviation for tin n., after use as symbolic abbreviation for post-classical Latin stannum stannum n. in the system introduced by Berzelius (see quot. 1813).

Chemistry.

The element tin.

1813 tr. J. J. Berzelius in Ann. Philos. 2 359 In the class of combustibles which I call metalloids, I use only the initial letters. For example, S = sulphur, Sn = tin (stannum).., &c.

1865 Philos. Trans. (Royal Soc.) 155 73 The numbers..corresponding to the elements Bi, Pb, Au, Pt, Sn, Zn, Cu, Ni, Fe, and S..are multiplied by the respective specific heats of these bodies.

1906 H. J. H. Fenton Notes Qualitative Anal. (new ed.) 53 Mix the residue with KOH till alkaline, and then warm with sodium or potassium sulphide. This dissolves Sn and Sb as sulpho-salts.

1965 C. S. G. Phillips & R. J. P. Williams Inorg. Chem. I. v. 146 The shift of the γ-ray energy from the value found in metallic Sn increases from SnI₄ through SnBr₄.

2012 Physica B 407 627 The gray balls represent Sn atoms.
