(i) SiCl4 + 2Mg(or Zn) → Si + 2MgC12 (or ZnCI2)
(ii) SiCl4 + 2CH3MgCI → (CH3)2SiC12 + 2MgC12

Polymerization continues on both ends to give linear silicone.
(iii) SiCI4 + 2Mg → Si + 2MgC12
Si + Na2CO3 → Na2SiO3 + C
SiCI4 + Na2CO3 → Na2SiO3 + C
Si(OH)2 \overset{heat}{\rightarrow}SiO2 + 2H2O
SiO2 + 2NaOH → Na2SiO3 + H2O
