  • Chemical Equations: Understanding Reactants and Products
    The elements or compounds on the right side of a chemical equation are called products.

    Here's a breakdown:

    * Reactants: These are the substances that are combined or changed in a chemical reaction. They appear on the left side of the equation.

    * Products: These are the substances that are formed as a result of the chemical reaction. They appear on the right side of the equation.

    For example, in the reaction:

    2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O

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

    * Products: Water (H₂O)
