a) carbon react with bromine
b) germanium react with fluorine
c) tin with oxygen
d) lead with hot concentrated hydrochloric acid.
e) silicon react with steam

need help to solve them

Why don't you Google each? Obviously there is a pattern here since all are in the same column.

This one is not part of a pattern.

Pb + HCl ==> PbCl2 + H2

Then Sn + O2 ==> SnO2 is typical

a) Carbon reacts with bromine:

To write a balanced equation, we need to determine the chemical formula of the reactants and products.
The chemical formula for carbon is typically written as C, while the chemical formula for bromine is Br2 (since bromine exists as a diatomic molecule).
So, the balanced equation for the reaction between carbon and bromine is:
C + Br2 -> CBr4

b) Germanium reacts with fluorine:
Similar to the previous example, we need to find the chemical formula for both germanium and fluorine.
The chemical formula for germanium is Ge, and for fluorine, it is F2 (since fluorine also exists as a diatomic molecule).
Therefore, the balanced equation for the reaction between germanium and fluorine is:
Ge + F2 -> GeF4

c) Tin reacts with oxygen:
By determining the chemical formula of tin and oxygen, we can write the balanced equation.
The chemical formula for tin is Sn, and for oxygen, it is O2.
Hence, the balanced equation representing the reaction between tin and oxygen is:
2Sn + O2 -> 2SnO

d) Lead reacts with hot concentrated hydrochloric acid:
To write a balanced equation, we first need to know the chemical formula of lead and hydrochloric acid.
The chemical formula for lead is Pb, and for hydrochloric acid, it is HCl.
Since hydrochloric acid is an aqueous solution of hydrogen chloride (HCl), the balanced equation for this reaction is:
Pb + 2HCl -> PbCl2 + H2

e) Silicon reacts with steam:
To create a balanced equation, we need to determine the chemical formula for silicon and water (steam is gaseous water).
The chemical formula for silicon is Si. Water is H2O, representing two hydrogen atoms bonded to one oxygen atom.
Therefore, the balanced equation for the reaction between silicon and steam is:
Si + 2H2O -> SiO2 + 2H2
