Explain solid carbon to form liquid silicon

Reference no: EM13527981

Silicon, which occurs in nature as , is the material from which most computer chips are made. If is heated until it melts into a liquid, it reacts with solid carbon to form liquid silicon and carbon monoxide gas. In an industrial preparation of silicon, 63.8 of reacted with 25.8 of carbon to produce 22.4 of silicon. Determine the percent yield for the reaction.
