  • Chemical Reactions: Understanding Products and Reactants
    The new substance that forms from a chemical change is called a product.

    Here's why:

    * Chemical Change: A chemical change involves the breaking and forming of new chemical bonds, resulting in a completely different substance with new properties.

    * Reactants: The original substances involved in a chemical change are called reactants.

    * Products: The new substances formed from a chemical change are called products.

    For example, in the reaction between hydrogen and oxygen to form water:

    * Reactants: Hydrogen (H₂) and Oxygen (O₂)

    * Product: Water (H₂O)
