How is a chemical reaction represented by a chemical equation
Answers
Explanation:
A chemical equation is a symbolic representation of a chemical reaction in the form of symbols and formulae, with the reactant entities on the left and the product entities on the right, with a plus sign between the entities in both the reactants and the products, and an arrow pointing towards the products, indicating the reaction's direction.
Formation of chemical reaction:
The chemical formulae of the reactants (the beginning materials) and the chemical formula of the products make up a chemical equation (substances formed in the chemical reaction). An arrow symbol (, generally interpreted as "yields") separates the two, and a plus sign separates each particular substance's chemical formula from the others.
As an example, the equation for the reaction of hydrochloric acid with sodium can be denoted:
