Some chemical molecules cannot be described completely by using only one Lewis structure. In these cases, we can describe the molecule by drawing 2 or more Lewis structures, and the structures are called resonance structures. The overall molecular structure is explained by all the resonance structures together. So, they each describe the bonding in the molecule only partially.

Silicon reacts with carbon dioxide to form silicon carbide sic and silicon dioxide

andrew-mc [135]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Silicon reacts with carbon dioxide to form silicon carbide and silicon dioxide. Write the balanced chemical equation.

Answer: The balanced chemical equation is written below.

Explanation:

Every balanced chemical equation follows law of conservation of mass.

A balanced chemical equation is defined as the equation in which total number of individual atoms on the reactant side is equal to the total number of individual atoms on product side.

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction of silicon and carbon dioxide follows:

$2Si+CO_2\rightarrow SiC+SiO_2$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of silicon reacts with 1 mole of carbon dioxide gas to produce 1 mole of silicon carbide and 1 mole of silicon dioxide

Hence, the balanced chemical equation is written above.
