Question

Which of these accurately describes the products of a reaction?

A) substances that are used in a reaction
B) new substances that are present at the end of a reaction
C) substances that do not participate in a reaction
D) substances that were not used up in a reaction

Answer 1

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Reactants are the species which are present on the left hand side of a chemical equation.

On the other hand, products are the species which are present on the right hand side of a chemical equation.

For example,
`NaCl + H_(2)O \rightarrow NaOH + HCl`

Here, NaCl and H_{2}O are the reactants whereas NaOH and HCl are the products.

This also means that products are the new substances which are formed.

Thus, we can conclude that new substances that are present at the end of a reaction accurately describes the products of a reaction.

Answer 2

the one that accurately describes the products of a reaction is : B. new substances that are present at the end of a reaction
For example the process of photosynthesis transform CO2 and other nutrients into O2 and H2O
