Hey there!
Balance the equation:
SiCl₄ + H₂O → H₄SiO₄ + HCl
Balance H.
2 on the left, 5 on the right. Add a coefficient of 3 in front of H₂O and a coefficient of 2 in front of HCl.
SiCl₄ + 3H₂O → H₄SiO₄ + 2HCl
Balance O.
3 on the left, 4 on the right. Change the coefficient of 3 in front of H₂O to a 4.
SiCl₄ + 4H₂O → H₄SiO₄ + 2HCl
This unbalanced our H, so change the coefficient of 2 in front of HCl to a 4.
SiCl₄ + 4H₂O → H₄SiO₄ + 4HCl
Balance Cl.
4 on the left, 4 on the right. Already balanced.
Balance Si.
1 on the left, 1 on the right. Already balanced.
Our final balanced equation:
SiCl₄ + 4H₂O → H₄SiO₄ + 4HCl
Hope this helps!
We are asked to identify what type of rock would be formed in a plant-rich swamp. We all know that plant dies and the remain leaves in the soil called peat. Temperature, pressure and heat causes the remains to submerged under the soil bed layer and converts it into a waxy substance called kerogen. Kerogen then mixes with the rock under the soil bed layer to create what is called an oil shale. Oil shale is somehow similar to a coal. Both creates an energy when ignited. Therefore the correct answer to the question being asked is COAL or Oil Shale.
The answer is A. The element is sodium (Na) and is highly reactive

A digital thermometer has less errors in reading temperatures because it displays the actual reading rather than approximating it in a liquid-based thermometer. Also, digital thermometer are advantageous to use in extreme temperature conditions because they can withstand in these type of conditions.
