The ⇀ (Rightwards Harpoon with Barb Upwards) symbol features a straight horizontal line pointing right, capped with a single upper barb. It is widely used in mathematics and physics to denote a vector quantity or spatial direction. In chemistry, it often pairs with a left-pointing harpoon to illustrate reversible reactions and chemical equilibrium.
