Best Answer

The reactants are the substances that react together; the reactants are on the left side of the equation. The product (or products) are what is produced from the reaction, which is on the right side of the equation. For example:

2H2 + O2 --> 2(H2O)

The reactants are H2 & O2 and the product is H2O
