I will answer your all questions but , Sorry not serial wise .
Question 4 :-
What is a chemical equation ?
=> A chemical equation represents the reaction of Given group of atoms or single atom .
What is the meaning of the term reactants ?
=> The reactants combines in a given reaction to form another chemicals .
Now , What is meant by products ?
=> In a given chemical reaction the chemicals / Materials formed by the reaction of reactants are known as products .
Note :- The reactants or the products can either be single or more than single .
How to find what is/are reactants and are/is products ?
=> In a chemical equation , when we write a equation we write a arrow symbol to represent the products . On which side the head of the arrow is the side of the products .
For Example Kindly see the attachment .
Question 2 :-
What is meant by the term "Valency" ?
=> The no. of electrons present in the outermost shell of a given atom is known as it's valency .
For Example :- Let us consider an atom "Z" with no. of electrons in outermost shell = x
Then , You have to note that ,
If x < 5 , then the valency of Z is x .
x > 5 , then the valency of Z is 8 - x . Because we have to fill the octate .
Question 3 :-
What is variable Valency ?
=> The property of an element to exist different Valency in different different compounds is known as Variable valency .
For Example :- Silver shows variable valency of +1 and +2 respectively .
I can't explain in brief , because you have said that this question is related to Class 9th .
Question 1 :-
What is meant by the term "Symbol" ?
=> In chemistry , Symbol is the term by which we can represent a given element in written . Note that , symbols are very important to write a chemical equation .
For Example :- Symbol of Silver and Gold are Ag and Au respectively .
What is the qualitative meaning of "Symbol" ?
=> It means that " Only One symbol is there for a certain element " .
For example :- Symbol for helium i s" He " and for hydrogen is "H" .
What is quantitative meaning of "Symbol" ?
=> A symbol represents the quantity of a Element also known as atomic mass ( A ) and we represent atomic mass and Atomic number ( Z ) of a certain element .
For example :- Kindly see the second attachment .
