This is not a replacement reaction. And the silicon chloride is SiCl4.
Equation = SiO2 + 4HCl -> SiCl4 + 2H20
A tetrahedral molecule will have a 109.5 degree bond angle.
The chemical formula silicon chloride is SiCl4.
SiCl4 is tetrahedral in shape
SiCl4 is tetrahedral and the central Si atom is sp3 hybridised.
The main reason that CCl4 is not hydrolysed and SiCl4 is hydolysed is because SiCl4 is an ionic compound and CCl4 is a covalent compound.
SiCl4 is acidic. So the pH must be around 0-4...
Ca2Si + 4Cl2 >> 2CaCl2 + SiCl4
