Study Notes
Balancing Chemical Equation
- The given chemical equation is: SiCl4 + H2O -> SiO2 + HCI
- To balance the equation, the correct coefficients are: SiCl4 + 2H2O -> SiO2 + 4HCI
- This equation indicates that one molecule of silicon tetrachloride (SiCl4) reacts with two molecules of water (H2O) to form one molecule of silicon dioxide (SiO2) and four molecules of hydrogen chloride (HCI)
Test your skills in balancing chemical equations by determining the coefficients for the given reaction. Choose the correct coefficients to ensure that the number of atoms for each element is the same on both sides of the equation.
