Answer:

Word equations explain which substance reacts with another substance to form a new substance, while molecular equation use symbols and formulas with quantities showing reactants and products.

For example, Zinc reacts with dilute sulphuric acid to produce zinc sulphate and hydrogen gas.

Word equation: Zinc + Sulphuric Acid → Zinc Sulphate + Hydrogen

Chemical equations are symbolic representations of chemical reactions in which the reactants and the products are expressed in terms of their respective chemical formulae. They also make use of symbols to represent factors such as the direction of the reaction and the physical states of the reacting entities. Chemical equations were first formulated by the French chemist Jean Beguin in the year 1615.

Chemical reactions can be represented on paper with the help of chemical equations, an example for which is represented below (for the reaction between hydrogen gas and oxygen gas to form water).

Chemical Equations: + O2 -> 2H2O
