Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -a bilateral contract is one consisting of the exchange of mutual promises, a promise for a promise, in which each party is both promisor and a promisee.

Detailed explanation-2: -Most contracts can be either written or oral and still be legally enforceable, but some agreements must be in writing in order to be binding. However, oral contracts are very difficult to enforce because there’s no clear record of the offer, consideration, and acceptance.
