Substrand: "9.7 More chemical reactions" (8 periods)

Chemical reactions occur around us every day. We observe colour change or heat release during a chemical reaction. Chemical equations are scientific way of representing a reaction it shows reactants and products of a chemical reaction. Chemical equations are balanced to show equal number of each type of atom on both side of the equation.
