A chemical reaction equation is a symbolic representation of a chemical reaction using chemical formulas and symbols.  A chemical reaction equation shows the reactants on the left and the products on the right, separated by an arrow. The reactants are the starting compounds, and the products are the final compounds.  A chemical equation must be balanced to ensure the law of conservation of mass. This means that the number of atoms on both sides of the equation must be equal.  A balanced chemical reaction equation shows the mole relationships of reactants and products. It often also...
