Chemicals are substances that have a defined composition. Some chemicals occur in nature, such as water while others are manufactured, such as chlorine. Many substances will react in a certain way when mixed with certain other substances or compounds. Reagents are substances or compounds which are added to either cause a chemical reaction or to see if a reaction will occur. Reagent-grade chemicals are used for chemical analysis. They are therefore of very high purity and must contain very low levels of impurities. Less
