Add more background information about the reaction.
Ex -
The Temperature and pressure of the reaction.
If any calalyst is present or not.
Balance it properly.
If it belongs to a process, name the process.

A chemical equation can give more informations in the following ways:
- The physical state of the reactants and products can be indicated by putting (s) for solid, (l) for liquid, (g) for gas and (aq) for aqueous state.
- Evolution or absorption of heat during the reaction can be denoted by adding or subtracting a heat term on the product side.
- Temperature, pressure and catalyst can be indicated above the arrow (→ or =) separating the reactants and products.
- Concentration of reactants and products are indicated by adding word (dil) for dilute and (cone) for concentrated before their formulae.
- By the sign → or \rightleftharpoons information about irreversible and reversible reactions can be obtained.
