Overview

Chemical equations are the symbolic representation of chemical change. A chemical change occurs when new substances are formed with properties completely unlike those of the original substances. Common signs of chemical change include change in colour or state, liberation or absorption of heat, form

Key Concepts

A chemical change produces new substances

A chemical change produces new substances with properties different from the original substances. Such changes may involve heat change, gas evolution,

Reactants are the substances that undergo

Reactants are the substances that undergo chemical change, and products are the new substances formed after the reaction.

A chemical equation is the symbolic

A chemical equation is the symbolic representation of a chemical change. Reactants are written on the left side of the arrow and products on the right
