The shape of the Silicon tetrachloride molecule is tetrahedral, a very symmetrical form.

No, it is a tetrahedral molecule
Yes, water is a bend molecule with a bond angle of about 105 degrees. They are described as bent planar (or V shaped)
A water molecule is considered to be V(or bent) shape.
The chemical equation for the reaction between a silicon atom and a chlorine molecule is: Si + Cl2 → SiCl4
No, SiCl4 does not have dipole forces. This is because the molecule is symmetrical and the dipole moments of the chlorine atoms cancel each other out due to the tetrahedral geometry of the molecule.
SiCl4 is a molecular compound. It is composed of silicon and chlorine atoms that are covalently bonded, sharing electrons to form a stable molecule.
Carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) cannot undergo hydrolysis because it lacks a hydrogen atom that can be replaced by a hydroxide ion. On the other hand, silicon tetrachloride (SiCl4) can undergo hydrolysis because the silicon atom in the molecule can form bonds with hydroxide ions, leading to the breakdown of the molecule in the presence of water.
A tetrahedral molecule will have a 109.5 degree bond angle.
bent
OF2 has a bent shape.
The point group of a bent nitrogen-dioxide molecule is C2v.
Silicon tetrachloride (SiCl4) contains one silicon atom and four chlorine atoms, making a total of five atoms in the molecule.
The shape of a water molecule (H2O) is bent or angular, resembling a letter "V". This occurs due to the two lone pairs of electrons on the oxygen atom, causing the molecule to have a bent molecular geometry.
