A. Zinc + copper oxide.
They are reacting with each other therefore called the “reactants”

B. Zinc oxide + copper
They are the product of the reaction, therefore called products

C. Zinc, copper and oxygen
Those are w the single elements on the periodic table

D. Copper oxide, zinc oxide
Those are compounds that have combined to form a bond with an element other than their own. (For this level of chemistry)
