I assume you’re looking for a balanced equation.
SiCl4 + 2H2O = SiO2 + 4HCl
The fifth shell can hold up to 50 electrons and the forth shell can hold 8 electrons
Answer: Cations (positively-charged ions) and anions (negatively-charged ions) are formed when a metal loses electrons, and a nonmetal gains those electrons. The electrostatic attraction between the positives and negatives brings the particles together and creates an ionic compound, such as sodium chloride.
