You do not write a subscript because it is understood to be one. For example, the formula for water, H2O, indicates that there are two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom in a molecule of water. There is no subscript written next to the oxygen atom because it is understood to be one.
What else can I help you with?
What does it mean when a compounds chemicals formula does not include any numbers?
there is only one atom of each element
What does it mean if an atom has subscript in a chemical formula?
There is one atom of that element in the molecule.
What is the word for matter that is only made out of one atom?
The word for matter made out of one type of atom is an element. Each element on the periodic table contains only one type of atom.
What is the formula mass of a molecule made up of only one atom?
The formula mass of a molecule made up of only one atom is simply the atomic mass of that element. This mass is typically expressed in atomic mass units (amu) and can be found on the periodic table. For example, the formula mass of a helium atom (He) is approximately 4.00 amu, which corresponds to its atomic mass.
How many elements are in a atom?
i don't know about 2
What does it mean if an atom has no subscript in a chemical formula?
There is one atom of that element in the molecule.
What does it means when a compounds chemical formula does not include any numbers?
It means that you have one atom of each element in the formula
What does it mean if a chemical symbol in a chemical formula has no subscript?
There is one atom of that element in the molecule.
What does it mean when a compound formula does not include numbers?
there is only one atom of each element
What does it mean when a compounds formula does not include any numbers?
there is only one atom of each element
What does it mean a compounds chemical formula does not include any numbers?

What does it mean if an atom has subscript in a chemical formula?
There is one atom of that element in the molecule.
What does it mean when an element in a chemical formula does not have a subscript?
The meaning is that only one atom of this element exist in the molecule. Example: sodium chloride - NaCl.
Is c2h60 an element?
The formula c2h60 does not represent any known element. It appears to be a chemical formula with a typo (possibly ethanol, C2H6O, which is a compound). Each element consists of only one type of atom.
What do you call a substance that only contains one kind of atom?
A substance that only contains one kind of atom is called an element.
How do you decide if a formula repesents a compound or an element?
If the chemical formula contains only one element (such as Mg, K or Cl2) it would be an element. If it contains two or more elements (such as NaCl, CO2 or CuSO4.5H2O) then it would be a compound.
