Answer:

Explanation: SnO2 is amphoteric in nature. It reacts with acid, eg. HCL to form SnCl4 in the solution. The common Sn4 + ions are adsorbed on the surface of SnO2 particles giving the positive charge.

SnO2 reacts with a base, eg., NaOH to form sodium stannate in the solution. The Stannate ions are adsorbed on the surface of SnO2 particles giving them the negative charge.
