(a) Water-gas shift reaction: carbon monoxide reacts with steam (in the presence of a catalyst) to give carbon dioxide and hydrogen. This is an industrial route for producing hydrogen:
CO + H2O -> CO2 + H2
(Already balanced: 1 C, 2 O, 2 H on each side.)
(b) Silicon dissolves in hot aqueous sodium hydroxide, liberating hydrogen and forming sodium silicate:
Si + 2NaOH + H2O -> Na2SiO3 + 2H2 (up) …
