Question

a scientist performs the following chemical reaction: sicl₄ + 4h₂o → h₄sio₄ + 4hcl. which of the following does the scientist use as a reactant for this reaction?

Explanation:

In a chemical reaction, reactants are the substances present at the start of the reaction. In the given reaction $\text{SiCl}_4 + 4\text{H}_2\text{O}
ightarrow\text{H}_4\text{SiO}_4 + 4\text{HCl}$, the substances on the left - hand side of the arrow are $\text{SiCl}_4$ and $\text{H}_2\text{O}$.

Answer:

$\text{SiCl}_4$ and $\text{H}_2\text{O}$
