According to the following reaction:
SiF_4 (s) + 2 H_2O (l)--------> 4 HF (aq) + SiO_2 (s)
What would you multiply "moles of silicon tetrafluoride" by to convert to the units "moles of silicon dioxide" ?
moles SiF_4___________________________________… (fraction)=moles SiO_2
Enter the coefficients directly from the balanced chemical equation.
Do not reduce to lowest terms.
For example: If 3 moles H2 react with 3 moles O2, enter "3" for each, not "1".

Inspection of the balanced eq indicates that you get one mol SiO2 for each mol SF4 reacted, so (unless you are thowing us a curve) the answer is 1...or 1/1 if you prefer.

Suppose the question: How many moles of silicon dioxide can be produced from 1 mole of silicon tetrafluoride?
1molSiF4 x 1molSiO2/1molSiF4 = 1 mole SiO2
1molSiF4 x 1molSiO2/1molSiF4 = 1 mole SiO2
