Concept explainers
Interpretation: By using the formation of water from hydrogen and oxygen, the terms chemical reaction, reactant and product are to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Chemical reaction is a process in which one substance breaks into two or more substances react with each other in the presence of reagent or catalyst under the appropriate experimental conditions leading to the formation of one or more substances. During
The substances undergoing a reaction is known as reactants, whereas the substances obtained from chemical reaction are called as products.
To Explain: The terms chemical reaction, reactant and product using the formation of water from hydrogen and oxygen.
