Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The balanced equation for the reaction between solid silicon dioxide and solid carbon that produces solid silicon monocarbide and carbon monoxide gas is to be stated.
Concept introduction: The balanced equation follows the law of conservation of mass. The unbalanced equation means that number of the atoms of elements present in the reactant is not equal to the product side.
It is stated by law of conservation of mass that, “during any
To determine: The balanced equation for the reaction between solid silicon dioxide and solid carbon.
