Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the terminology used in chemical reactions: Reactants are the starting substances that undergo change during a reaction.
Identify what happens when reactants interact: They transform into new substances through breaking and forming chemical bonds.
Recognize that the new substances formed as a result of the reaction are called products.
Differentiate products from other terms: A catalyst speeds up a reaction without being consumed, a solvent dissolves substances, and a precipitate is an insoluble solid formed in a solution.
Conclude that the correct term for the resulting substance after reactants mix and react is 'product'.
