Identify the symbols in parentheses next to each chemical formula in the equation: (l) and (g).
Recall that in chemical equations, symbols in parentheses indicate the physical state of each substance involved in the reaction.
Understand that (l) stands for liquid, meaning the substance is in the liquid phase under the reaction conditions.
Recognize that (g) stands for gas, meaning the substance is in the gaseous phase under the reaction conditions.
Conclude that these symbols do not indicate bond types, temperature, or concentration, but specifically the physical states of the substances.
