With aluminium, it can be reduced to silicaon .
`3 SiC l_4 + 4 Alrarr 3 Si + 4 AlCl_3`
`3 SiCl_4 + 4 Alrarr 3 Si + 4 AlCl_3`
`Si + Cu overset (Delta) (rarr) Cu - Si`
`Cu - Si + 2 CH_3 Clrarr (CH_3)_3 sicl_2 +Ca`

c. `SiC_4 4H_2O rarr Si (OH)_4 +HCl`
`Si(OH)_4 rarr SiO_2 +H_2O`
`SiO_2+NaCO_3 overset (1400^@C)/(rarr) Na_2SiO_3 + CO_2`.

Silicones are synthetic polymers containing repeated R_2 SiO units . Since the empirical formula is that of a ketone (R_2 CO) , the name Silicone has been given to these materials . Silicone can be made into oils , rubbery elastomers and resins . They find a variety of applications because of their chemical inertness , water repelling nature, heat resistance and good electrical insulating property . Commerically silicon polymers are usually synthesised by the hudrolysis of R_2 SiCl_2 [R = Methyl (Me ) or phenyl ( phi)] . If we start with SiMeCl_3 as the starting material silicones formed is :
