Write the overall equation for reaction.

1 answer

The overall equation for a reaction typically includes the reactants on the left side of the arrow, and the products on the right side of the arrow. It shows the balanced chemical equation for the reaction.

For example, the overall equation for the reaction between hydrogen gas and oxygen gas to form water can be written as:

2H2 + O2 -> 2H2O

This equation shows that 2 molecules of hydrogen gas (H2) react with 1 molecule of oxygen gas (O2) to form 2 molecules of water (H2O).
