There are two arrows used: --->: The arrow indicates that the chemicals (called the reactants) on the left-hand side react to form the chemicals on the right-hand side (called the products). <--> (or a variant): this arrow means that the two sets of chemicals are in equilibrium, i.e. that the rate of reaction that turns one side into the other is equal to the rate at which they turn back, so that there is no net change in the amount of either set.

What word does not state what the arrow means in a chemical equation?
If it reproduces.
What does word equation mean in science?
'Word equation' refers to a chemical equation written in words, not balanced chemical symbols. For example, aerobic respiration is as follows; Glucose + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy C6H12O6 + 6 O2 = 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + Energy
The general chemical equation X Y to XY in words?
If you want to react say , hydrochloric acid with zinc, the word equation is : - Hydrochloric Acid and Zinc react to produce Zinc Chloride and Hydrogen . The chemical equation is 2HCl(aq) + Zn(s) = ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g) (aq) means aqueous solution (s) means solid (g) means gas.
Word equation and chemical equation for iron and copper ll sulfate?
Fe + CuSO4 = FeSO4 + Cu
What are word equations in chemistry?
When a chemical reaction occurs, it can be described by an equation. This shows the chemicals that react (called the reactants) on the left-hand side, and the chemicals that they produce (called the products) on the right-hand side. The chemicals can be represented by their names or by their chemical symbols.Unlike mathematical equations, the two sides are separated by an arrow, that indicates that the reactants form the products and not the other way round.
What word does not state what the arrow means in a chemical equation?
If it reproduces.
What is a five letter word for a symbol that represents the word yield in a chemical equation?
the answer is "arrow"
What is a chemical and word equation for boron plus fluorine?
B + 3F [arrow] BF3 Boron and fluorine yield boron (III) fluoride.
In a word equation the arrow should read as?
'To'. >(Reactant) to (Product)<

What is a special type of sentence that show what happens during a chemical reaction?
a word equation, or a chemical equation
What word does the arrow in the chemical question stand for?
Reacts to produce
What is the difference between rate of reaction and chemical equation?
The chemical equation is the word expression of a chemical reaction.The rate of reaction give information about the speed of this reaction.
What is the word equation for a battery?
The main chemical in a battery + an explosion = a chemical reaction to a battery
The general chemical equation X Y to XY in words?
If you want to react say , hydrochloric acid with zinc, the word equation is : - Hydrochloric Acid and Zinc react to produce Zinc Chloride and Hydrogen . The chemical equation is 2HCl(aq) + Zn(s) = ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g) (aq) means aqueous solution (s) means solid (g) means gas.
What is the word equation for copper sulphide into copper sulphate?
copper+sulphur+oxygen then theres an arrow, but i don't know how 2 do an arrow copper sulphate
What is the difference between a word equation a formula equation and a chamical equation?
A chemical formula is the way a particular chemical (element or compound) is represented using the letters given in the Periodic Table. For example, the chemical formula of oxygen is O2 and the chemical formula of caron dioxide is CO2A word equation describes a chemical reactionusing the names of chemicals only. For instance, the word equation for respiration is:glucose + oxygen => carbon dioxide + waterA formula equation also describes a chemical reaction, but uses chemical formulae instead of names and is balanced. An example of this would be methane burning in oxygen:CH4 + 2O2 => CO2 + 2H2O
