If the starting material for the manufacture of silicones is `RSiCl_(3)`, write the structure of the product formed.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the structure of the product formed from the starting material \( RSiCl_3 \) in the manufacture of silicones, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Hydrolysis of \( RSiCl_3 \) The first step in the process is hydrolysis. When \( RSiCl_3 \) reacts with water (\( H_2O \)), it undergoes hydrolysis, where the chlorine atoms are replaced by hydroxyl groups. The reaction can be represented as follows: \[ RSiCl_3 + 3H_2O \rightarrow RSi(OH)_3 + 3HCl \] ...
