Question

Write balanced chemical equations for the reaction of -
(1) boron with ammonia.
(i)
silicon tetrachloride with water.​

Answer 1

Answer:

An oxide of boron reacts with ammonia and forms boron nitride and water. This reaction takes place under high temperature about 2000°C temperature is required to complete the reaction. Moreover, a catalyst of carbon or magnesium is also required to achieve the reaction.

1- The reaction of Boron trioxide with ammonia is as follow.

B2O3 + 2NH3 → 2BN + 3H2O

2- When silicon tetrachloride reacts with water it produces silicon dioxide and hydrochloric acid.

Here is the balab=nced chemical equation:

SiCl4 + 2H2O → SiO2 + HCl
