  1. chemical reaction

    A chemical reaction is a process that involves the rearrangement of the molecular or ionic structure of a substance, as opposed to a change in physical form or a nuclear reaction. This transformation results in the formation of one or more different substances. These reactions often involve the combination of two or more substances (reactants), resulting in the creation of one or more different substances (products), usually accompanied by a release or absorption of energy.

  1. Chemical reaction

    A chemical reaction is a process that leads to the transformation of one set of chemical substances to another. Classically, chemical reactions encompass changes that only involve the positions of electrons in the forming and breaking of chemical bonds between atoms, with no change to the nuclei, and can often be described by a chemical equation. Nuclear chemistry is a sub-discipline of chemistry that involves the chemical reactions of unstable and radioactive elements where both electronic and nuclear changes may both occur. The substance initially involved in a chemical reaction are called reactants or reagents. Chemical reactions are usually characterized by a chemical change, and they yield one or more products, which usually have properties different from the reactants. Reactions often consist of a sequence of individual sub-steps, the so-called elementary reactions, and the information on the precise course of action is part of the reaction mechanism. Chemical reactions are described with chemical equations, which graphically present the starting materials, end products, and sometimes intermediate products and reaction conditions.
