Answer: Silicon tetrachloride (g) + Mg (s) [tex]\rightarrow[/tex] Silicon (s) + Magnesium chloride (s)
[tex]SiCl_4(g)+Mg(s)\rightarrow Si(s)+MgCl_2(s)[/tex]
Explanation:
The word equation for Solid silicon and solid magnesium chloride form wen silicon tetrachloride gas reacts with magnesium metal :
Silicon tetrachloride (g) + Mg (s) [tex]\rightarrow[/tex] Silicon (s) + Magnesium chloride (s)
The skeletal equation where law of conservation of mass is not followed will be:
[tex]SiCl_4(g)+Mg(s)\rightarrow Si(s)+MgCl_2(s)[/tex]
