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

balance the reactant side with the product side of the equation.
The relative proportions of each reactant and product.
The question is mis-stated. There is no target for the "Why". Please restate the question.
In these reaction, an element simultaneously undergoes oxidation as well as reduction. This is possible only when the element exhibits minimum three different oxidation states and on the reactant side, it is present in an intermediate oxidation state while higher and lower oxidation states are exhibited by it in the form of products.
In a rectangle, the longer side is referred to as the "length," while the shorter side is called the "width." These terms help distinguish the dimensions of the rectangle, with length typically representing the side that is longer. When discussing the area or perimeter, these dimensions are essential for calculations.
