Solution

Chemical equations:
Chemical equations constitute the reactants that react to form new products.
The chemical equation provides information about:
the chemical formulae and the chemical symbols of the reactants and the products.
the physical states of each component involved in the reaction.
For example: When Nitrogen (N) reacts with Hydrogen (H) gas to form ammonia (NH₃). The chemical equation for the reaction is given as:
N₂ (g) + 3H₂ (g) ⇢ 2NH₃ (g)
