The unbalanced equation is: [tex]\mathbf{SiCl_{4(g)} + Mg_{(s)} \to Si_{(s)} + MgCl_2{(s)}}[/tex]
The balanced equation for is: [tex]\mathbf{SiCl_{4(g)} + 2Mg_{(s)} \to Si_{(s)} + 2MgCl_2{(s)}}[/tex]
We are being told that the reaction occurs between Silicon tetrachloride gas and Magnesium metal.
This can be expressed as [tex]\mathbf{SiCl_{4(g)} + Mg_{(s)} }}[/tex]
The reaction between these reactants gives the product of Solid silicon and solid magnesium chloride [tex]\mathbf{ Si_{(s)} + MgCl_2{(s)}}[/tex]
The unbalanced state of the equation where the moles of the reactant is not equal to the moles of the product is:
[tex]\mathbf{SiCl_{4(g)} + Mg_{(s)} \to Si_{(s)} + MgCl_2{(s)}}[/tex]
The balanced state of the equation where the number of moles of the reactant is equal to the moles of the product is:
[tex]\mathbf{SiCl_{4(g)} + 2Mg_{(s)} \to Si_{(s)} + 2MgCl_2{(s)}}[/tex]
