Mixing silicon and zinc would not lead to any significant reaction as they are both relatively inert elements. The resulting mixture would simply contain silicon and zinc particles mixed together.

Zinc.
When zinc metal is mixed with ZnCl2 (zinc chloride), a redox reaction occurs. The zinc metal will react with the zinc ions in the zinc chloride solution to form zinc atoms, while the chloride ions will remain in solution. This reaction usually results in the formation of more zinc metal and zinc chloride.
When you mix zinc with hydrochloric acid and heat it, it will produce zinc chloride salt and hydrogen gas. The hydrogen gas will be released as bubbles during the reaction.
The compound formed when you mix zinc and chlorine is zinc chloride (ZnCl2). This compound is a white crystalline solid that is commonly used in various industrial applications, such as in soldering fluxes and as a wood preservative.
