The representation of a chemical reaction in the form of symbols and formulas is called the chemical equation. In a chemical reaction, it is a convention to write the reactants on the left-hand side, and on the right-hand side, the resulting products are mentioned. There are numbers mentioned along with the entities too. They show us the values of the stoichiometric numbers.
Jean Beguin was the first man to diagram a chemical equation back in 1615. There is an arrowhead between the reactants and products which exhibits that the chemical changes have occurred and the reactants have transformed themselves into products. Moreover, if there are two or more entities on either side, they are separated from one another with the help of a plus sign.
