A sharp sign looks similar to a number symbol #. When the sharp sign is placed to the left of a note on sheet music, then it applies to that note. If on a piano, you play the note to the right of original note shown. (C# is the black note to the right of C.)
A flat sign looks like a pointed b. When the flat sign is placed to the left of a note on sheet music, it applies to that note. If on a piano, you play the note to the left of the original note shown. (D flat is the black note to the left of D)
A natural sign looks like this

The natural sign cancells out any sharps or flats which were previously given to the note in that measure. For instance, if you see an F natural, you simply play an F.
It is called a "natural" sign, and it cancels out/naturalizes a sharp or a flat.
A natural and a sharp before a note means that the note was previously a double-sharp and is now just a sharp.
*Chromatic signs are the sharp sign (♯), flat sign (♭) and natural sign (♮)a. Sharp sign(♯)- is used to raise the pitch by a half stepb. Flat sign(♭)- is used to lower the pitch by a half stepc. Natural sign(♮)- is used to restore the tone of a note to its original pitch.-:)
A natural. If a natural is added before a note, then if that note is sharpened or flattened in the key signature, then for that one note that has the natural in front of it (and all of the rest of the same notes in the bar), it will not be sharpened or flattened. Eg. If I was composing a song in the key of D Major (F# and C# in the key signature) and I wanted a normal F (not sharp), then I would add a natural in front of it. And for the rest of the song, all of the Fs would still be sharpened.
Often referred to as an accidental, these include sharp, flat, and natural signs.

A natural and a sharp before a note means that the note was previously a double-sharp and is now just a sharp.
An accidental can be a flat, natural, or sharp, used for a note NOT in the key (such as an F-sharp in C major).

What cancels an acciental in a Natural sign in front of a note. Example G Major (F#, F sharp). Any note in the line or space of the note F will be affected, but if there is a natural sign it will be restored to its original pitch.
it has a C sharp but no D natural
g sharp would be g sharp or a minor. d sharp would be d sharp or e flat. a sharp would be a sharp or b flat. c sharp would be c sharp or d flat. f sharp would be f sharp or g flat. e sharp would be e sharp or f slat for which there is no such note. and g natural would be g natural.
