What does the formula of a substance tell you?
The formula of a substance(element or compound) tells us the number of molecules in the in the substance(element or compound).
What do indicators tell us?
Indicators are used to tell a person whether or not a chemical is present or what pH a substance may be. Usually an indicator is a strip that is dipped into the substance and will change color based on the presence of a substance or pH.
What does conductivity tell us about the nature of chemical substances?
The chemical substance must form ions in solution if it is conductive. Ions are required for charge to flow through a solution.
When changing a subscript in a correctly written chemical formula it will change what?
Changing the subscript in a chemical formula changes the number of atoms to which the particular subscript belongs. Doing this changes the formula completely, making it representative of another substance completely.
What does the atomic symbol tell us about an element?
They tell you how many molecules of two or more compounds combine to form other molecules. The equation can, but will not always, tell you if the reaction requires heat or gives off heat (endothermic/exothermic), whether or not a catalyst is required.
What does the formula of a substance tell you?
The formula of a substance(element or compound) tells us the number of molecules in the in the substance(element or compound).
What is the formula for patassium?
Potassium is an element--the purest form of any substance. Technically the formula is just K as that is the elemental symbol. There are innumerable different compounds that include potassium in their formula.

What two things does a chemical formula tell us about a compound?
the actual number of atoms in a molecule
What do valance electrons tell us about atoms?
they tell us if the substance is stable or not
What us the chemical formula for phosphorus sulfide?
PS
what is a chemical formulae?
An identification of the atoms is a molecule (APEX)
What are the Physical and chemical properties of timber?
the chemical properties of timber tell us about the chemical composition of tree material and physical properties tell us about the apperence and color of the timber
What does the pH of a solution tell us?
how acidic or alkaline the substance is
