Products are what you use for the chemical reaction and the reactants is what happens when the products are added. But you need a better explanation just research it, or the meaning of each and you'll understand.

Btw wanna root? :)

The plus sign (+) separates two reactants in a chemical equation. For example, in the equation 2H2 + O2 -> 2H2O, the plus sign separates the two reactants (H2 and O2) on the left side of the equation.

The yield sign separates the formulas of the reactants from the formulas of the products. Matter is something that has mass and takes up space.

The substances to the left of the arrow in a chemical equation are called?

The substances to the left are called Reactants, and the rights are Products . For example=H2 + Cl2 -----> 2HClHere, Hydrogen (reactant) gets combined with Chlorine (reactant) to form Hydrogen Chloride(product). The number 2 is used to balance the equation


An expression in which symbols and formulae represent a chemical reaction?

A chemical equation is an expression in which symbols and formulae represent a chemical reaction. It shows the reactants on the left side and the products on the right side, with coefficients to balance the number of atoms on each side.


What is a balanced chemical equation why should the chemical equation be balanced?

A balanced chemical equation is when both the products and the reactants are balanced, or have the same number of atoms on each side of the equation. For example: 2H20 --> 2H2 + O2 This means there are 2 water molecules as the reactants (before reaction) and 4 hydrogen and 2 oxygen atoms as the products (after reaction). Technically the equation wouldn't work in real life if it weren't correctly balanced.


Is this equation balanced CaO HCL CaCl2 H2o Yes thank you What I need to know is the number of atoms in the reactants of the chemical equation?

The equation given is not balanced. To determine the number of atoms in the reactants, you need to balance the equation first. Once balanced, you can count the total number of atoms on each side of the equation.


How are word equations organized?

-The left side of the equation list all the reactants -The right side of the equation list all the products -An arrow points from the reactants to the products. It shows that something is produced during the reaction. All the reactants and all the products in a word equation are separated by a plus sign (+) reactant 1+reactant 2 ---> product 1 product 2
