Reactant is starting material in a chemical reaction. It 'causes' the reaction to happen, pretty much. So if there is an equation A + B --> AB, then A + B will be reactants of that reaction. It is found in the beginning of the chemical equation, befor the arrow(indicates 'to produce') sign.
The reactant in chemistry is output of a chemical equation.
for example
if hydrogen with oxygen forms water
then hydrogen and oxygen are the reactants
and water is the product
2H + O2 -> 2H2O
Reactants are compounds that react together to be transformed (after reaction) into product(s). Reactants are on the left side of the reaction sign (--> ) with products on the right.
R1 + R2 + ... --> P1 + .... (etc.)
Where the arrow points from. (Reactants -> Products)
Reactants are on the left side of a chemical equation, at least in countries where one reads from left to right.

The reactants
The starting materials in a chemical reaction are called reactants.
In a chemical reaction reactants are transformed in products.
In a chemical reaction, the starting materials are called the reactants.

Reactants
The reactants
The substances you have at the beginning of a chemical reaction are the reactants or the reagents.
Reactants are added into the equation to form the chemical reaction. Reactants are substances that are changed into products. Without these reactants, there would be no formula, resulting in no product.
The substances you have at the beginning of a chemical reaction are called the reactants.
the coefficients of a balanced reaction
A reactant or reactants enters into a chemical reaction to form product(s)
The starting materials in a chemical reaction are called reactants.
A chemical that undergoes a chemical reaction is called a reactant. The chemicals that are produced by a chemical reaction are called the products. So in a chemical reaction, reactants turn into products.
In a chemical reaction reactants are transformed in products.
In a chemical reaction, the starting materials are called the reactants.
The reaction must change the chemical nature of reactants.
