Chemical Reactionsand Equations
q

Chemical Reaction : – Whenever a chemical change occurs we can say that
a chemical reaction has taken place
eg

q



Food gets digested in our body



Rusting of iron
...


q

Physical state of the reactant and products are mentioned to make chemical
reaction more informative
...


q

Balancing Equation :– We balance the chemical equation so that no
...

eg Fe + H2O

→ Fe2O3 + H2 can be written as

3 Fe(s) + 4H2O(g)
q

→ Fe2O3(s) +4H2(g)

Combination Reaction :– The reaction in which two or more substances
combine to form a new single substance
