Explain the following reaction.
Silicon is heated with methyl chloride at high temperature in the presence of copper.
उत्तर
When silicon reacts with methyl chloride in the presence of copper (catalyst) and at a temperature of about 537 K, a class of organosilicon polymers called methyl-substituted chlorosilanes (MeSiCl3, Me2SiCl2, Me3SiCl, and Me4Si) are formed
