Silicon Tetrachloride is reacted with very pure magnesium, producing silicon and magnesium chloride. (What would be the unbalanc
raketka [301]
Pure magnesium's formula would just be Mg because all elements except for 7 nonmetals are just left alone when they are by themselves in a formula. The 7 diatomic elements( means they have to have two of them without another element attached to it aka. a subscript two after it when it's by itself) are hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine. An easy way to remember the diatomic seven is that when looking at a periodic table if you trace over them from nitrogen over to fluorine and down to iodine all of those elements are diatomic + hydrogen. 

And your unbalanced and balanced equations are correct.

(sorry I went on a tangent with the diatomic rules hopefully it will help you in the future though)

What word or two-word phrase best describes the shape of the hydrogen cyanide ( hcn ) molecule?
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer : Linear

Explanation : Hydrogen Cyanide (HCN) when drwan in the Lewis diagram shows carbon atom at the center with no lone electron pairs.

The carbon and nitrogen atoms are bonded through a triple bond which counts as "one electron pair".

The molecule has two electron pairs in all and appears to be linear.

Also, according to the VSEPR theory; the electron clouds on atoms around the carbon will try to repel each other.

They will get pushed apart, which gives HCN molecule a linear molecular geometry or shape.

The bond angle that is developed will be 180 degrees since it has a linear molecular geometry of HCN. The hybridisation observed in this molecule is SP.

sammy [17]
One of the two products of this reaction is carbonic acid (H2CO3), which immediately forms water and the gas you identified after exposure to the flaming and glowing splints. Write a balanced equation showing the decomposition of carbonic acid.
