chemical formula is an abbreviation representing the molecules of an element or a compound . The number and kind of the atoms of elements can be understood from the chemical formula . The symbol and number of atoms of each element will be indicated in the chemical formula.
A chemical formula tells what elements make up a compound and the exact number of atoms of each element in a unit of compound. :)
The chemical formula of calcium carbonate is CaCO3.
This number is the number of atoms of this element in the formula; and subscript meaning is down.
if no number is written following a chemical symbol in a chemical formula, it is understood the number of atoms of that element is one

The number of atoms of that element in the molecule
A combination of chemical symbols that show what elements make up a compound and the number of atoms of each element in the smallest unit of the compound is a chemical formula.
The number of atoms of the same element in the molecule
yes it does

Well, generally a formula is a group of symbols that make a mathematical statement. In chemistry, chemical formula or molecular formula is a way of expressing information about the atoms that constitute a particular chemical compound. For example formula of Sodium hydroxide is (NaOH), formula of methane is (CH4) etc. -or- A chemical formula is a concise way of expressing information about the atoms that constitute a particular chemical compound. It identifies each type of element by its chemical symbol and identifies the number of atoms of such element to be found in each discrete molecule of that compound. Glucose with six atoms, twelve hydrogen atoms and six oxygen atoms has the chemical formula: C6H12O6 Hope this helps. _______________________________________________________________ The chemical formula for water is H20
the purpose of a subscript is to tell how many atoms of that chemical is used in the formulaThe number of atoms of the same element in the molecule ~APEX
The exact number of atoms of each element in a unit of the compound can be shown in a chemical formula. Through the use of symbols, a chemical formula represents the proportions of atoms in a compound. For example, the chemical formula for water H2O indicates there are two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.
How does a subscript affect the element just before it?
