Answer: Silicon tetrachloride (g) + Mg (s)
\rightarrow Silicon (s) + Magnesium chloride (s)


SiCl_4(g)+Mg(s)\rightarrow Si(s)+MgCl_2(s)

Step-by-step explanation:

The word equation for Solid silicon and solid magnesium chloride form wen silicon tetrachloride gas reacts with magnesium metal :

Silicon tetrachloride (g) + Mg (s)
\rightarrow Silicon (s) + Magnesium chloride (s)

The skeletal equation where law of conservation of mass is not followed will be:


SiCl_4(g)+Mg(s)\rightarrow Si(s)+MgCl_2(s)
