Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The mouthpieces for some woodwinds, including the clarinet, oboe and bassoon, use a thin piece of wood called a reed, which vibrates when you blow across it. The clarinet uses a single reed made of one piece of wood, while the oboe and bassoon use a double reed made of two pieces joined together.

Detailed explanation-2: -This may seem obvious and is for certain cases. The most commonly played clarinets are as follows: Bb clarinets as well as A clarinets use Bb reeds. Eb clarinets as well as C clarinets (aimed at younger children) use Eb reeds.

Detailed explanation-3: -The clarinet is a single-reed musical instrument in the woodwind family, with a nearly cylindrical bore and a flared bell. Clarinets comprise a family of instruments of differing sizes and pitches. The clarinet family is the largest woodwind family, ranging from the BB♭ contrabass to the E♭ soprano.
