question 15 of 29
what does the arrow in a chemical reaction represent? (6.8 points)
a. yields
b. gives
c. reacts to produce
d. all of the above

Explanation:

In a chemical reaction, the arrow ($
ightarrow$ or $\overset{\text{heat}}{\longrightarrow}$ etc.) is used to show the direction of the reaction. The terms "yields", "gives", and "reacts to produce" are all common ways to describe what the arrow represents. For example, in the reaction $2H_{2}+O_{2}
ightarrow 2H_{2}O$, we can say "hydrogen and oxygen react to produce water", "hydrogen and oxygen give water", or "hydrogen and oxygen yields water".

Answer:

D. all of the above
