To identify the chemical reactants in the given equation, we need to understand the symbols and formulas used.
In the equation ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g), "ZnCl2(aq)" represents zinc chloride in an aqueous solution, where "aq" stands for aqueous. Zinc chloride is a compound consisting of zinc (Zn) and chlorine (Cl).
"H2(g)" represents hydrogen gas, where "g" stands for gas.
So, the chemical reactants in the equation are:
1. Zinc chloride (ZnCl2) in an aqueous solution
2. Hydrogen gas (H2)
Hence, the reactants in the given equation are zinc chloride (ZnCl2(aq)) and hydrogen gas (H2(g)).
