Dilute sulfuric acid will not attack tin or copper. However a hot concentrated solution of sulfuric acid will react with tin (and copper). It should also be noted that the reaction between tin and sulfuric acid is unusual in that it produces sulfur dioxide rather than hydrogen gas.
Other metals: M(s) + H2SO4(aq) → H2(g) + MSO4(aq)
Tin: Sn(s) + 2H2SO4(aq) → SnSO4(aq) + 2H2O(l) + SO2(g)

The most highly concentrated solutions of acids can react with Titanium and Tin. Such as Hydrochloric Acid, Sulfuric acid, Nitric Acid.

Stannum (Tin) with concentrated sulphuric acid gives SO2. With dilute sulphuris acid Stannum sulphate and hydrogen.

Yes, tin (Sn) does react with sulphuric acid, or any acid for that matter since it is higher in the metal activity series than H+ or hydrogen ion (check series on the listed source).

I am sure it would I use to work with sulphuric acid and caustic soda and hydrocloric acid, but you dont EVER want to mis them together im sure you know that! I worked with all 3 of them for 2 1/2 years!!

tin will definitely react with sulphuric acid in both the concentrated as well as the dilute form.
