what is the difference between chemical equation and chemical formula. pls answer if u know
Answers
Answer:
A chemical formula is the combination of atomic symbols that designate a particular chemical compound, or a substance with two or more different elements. The formula shows which type and how many of each element makes up that particular compound. An example would be NaCl for sodium chloride, composed of one atom of sodium and one atom of chlorine.
A chemical equation shows one or more chemical compounds (reactants) being converted into different chemical species called products. If the equation is balanced, it shows the ratios that the compounds must be present in to react and how many of the different products are produced. An arrow symbol is used to separate the left hand side from the right hand side of the equation (like an equals sign in a math equation).
