उत्तर
A chemical equation can be made more informative by:
- Indicating physical states of reactants and products.
- Indicating heat change in the reaction.
- Indicating the reaction condition.
Example:

where,
(s) and (g) signifies solid and gaseous state of compounds, respectively.
Heat written on reactants' side signifies that the reaction consumes heat.
