Reversible reaction

A reversible reaction is a chemical reaction that may be reversed. In other words, the reactant and product of one reaction may reverse roles, without adding chemicals.

Symbolically:

aA + bB \leftrightarrow cC + dD - products C and D are produced from reactants A and B, but C and D can react to form A and B.
