It is a catalyst/ inhibitor to the reaction.
Of itself , it does NOT change, but only aids(changes the rate of the reaction
Similarly if a physical component if placed their.
e.g.
CH3CH2OH + CH3COOH ==H^(+)==> CH3COOCH2CH3 + H2O
Acid catalyst (H^(+)) to speed up the reaction. Usually sulphuric acid.
or
CaCO3 ==Heat==> CaO + CO2 ( Thermal decomposition).
NB
Catalyst speeds up the rate of reaction
Inhibitor slows down the rate of reaction, because it may go TOO fast, and uncontrolled.
The reactants are written on the left side of the equation, while the products are written on the right side. The equation is balanced by adjusting the coefficients in front of the chemical formulas so that the number of atoms for each element is the same on both sides.
The smallest number written to the right of a chemical equation is the coefficient, which represents the number of molecules or formula units of a substance involved in the reaction.
The chemical formula (not equation) of sodium hydrogen sulfite is NaHSO3.
The chemical formula for potassium iodide is KI. When dissolved in water, it dissociates into potassium ions (K+) and iodide ions (I-). The equation for this dissociation is written as: KI → K+ + I-.
The hydroxide ion is represented in a chemical equation as OH-. For example, in the chemical formula for sodium hydroxide, NaOH, the hydroxide ion is written as OH-.

A coefficient is a number written in front of a chemical formula when balancing a chemical equation. The coefficient can represent the number of atoms, molecules, formula units, or moles of the substance.
The balanced chemical equation for a reaction tells the story of a chemical reaction by showing the reactants that are consumed and the products that are formed. It also provides information on the stoichiometry of the reaction, including the ratios of reactants and products involved.
The chemical symbol of rutherfordium is Rf.
There isn't one. A chemical equation is a sort of sentence describing a chemical change. It can be written in words or symbols, but it describes a process, not an object. I expect you really mean chemical formula, which describes the composition of a single substance, e.g. MgO is the formula of magnesium oxide. Jalapenos are complicated and variable mixtures so they don't have formulas.
If no coefficient is written before a chemical formula in a reaction, it is undertood to mean 'ONE Molar Ratio'. e.g. 2NaOH + H2SO4 = Na2SO4 + 2H2O Two(2) molar ratios of (NaOH) One(1) molar ratio of (H2SO4) produces One(1) molar ratio of (Na2SO4) Two(2) molar ratios of (H2O ; Water).
A coefficient is the number that goes before an element when your balancing the equation. And a subscript is the number after the element. Subscripts are not changed when you balance the equation.
The chemical formula for a base is typically written as OH-.
