In the following chemical reaction identify reactants and products

Oxygen + hydrogen—> Water

1 answer

In the chemical reaction "Oxygen + hydrogen → Water," the reactants and products are as follows:

  • Reactants: Oxygen (O₂) and Hydrogen (H₂)
  • Product: Water (H₂O)

This reaction can be represented more formally as: \[ 2H_2(g) + O_2(g) \rightarrow 2H_2O(l) \]

This shows that two molecules of hydrogen gas react with one molecule of oxygen gas to produce two molecules of liquid water.
