Chemical Reaction in Chemistry

A chemical reaction in chemistry and biochemistry is a process that transforms one or more substances (reactants molecules or compounds) into different types of substances or products by rearrangement of the electronic configuration of constituent atoms present in the reacting elements. In our daily lives, we come across a variety of chemical and biochemical changes in science experiments and our household items. Therefore, we represent the conversion of milk to curd, the rusting of iron, and the digestion of food items by chemical reactions and equations.

In chemistry, hydrogen reacts with iodine to form the hydrogen iodide molecule. In such a chemical change, hydrogen and iodine atoms are combined to produce the product hydrogen iodide. All the chemical changes are accompanied by chemical reactions and these are represented by chemical equations.

In this category, we will study the various types of chemical reactions and chemical equations which represent chemical changes. The most common articles related to the chemical reaction of substances are,
