The small number used to represent the number of ions of a given element in a chemical formula?
subscript
What do the symbol represent in a chemical formula 0 atoms 1 atoms 2 atoms or the need for subscript?
A symbol with no subscript has an implicit subscript of 1, meaning one atom of that element per formula unit. I'm not quite sure that's what you were asking.
In a chemical formula what is used to indicate the number of atoms of each element?
It is called a subscript. For example: In the formula for water (H2O), 2 is the subscript indicating that there are 2 hydrogen atoms in the compound .
What do the superscript and subscript mean in the notation 40 K represent 19?
The subscript (19) indicates that this atom has 19 protons (as well as 19 electrons). The supersript (40) denotes that it has 40 protons and neutrons, hence we can infer that it has 21 neutrons.
What do we use when we want to represent a molecule consisting of two of the same atoms joined together?
A symbol for a diatomic molecule as N2 (2 is a subscript, impossible to write in WA).
What do the subscript numbers represent in a chemical formula?
They tell you how often an atom - or a group of atoms - are repeated.

what number represents the subscript in the formula shown?
The letter or letters that represent an element are called its atomic symbol. The numbers appearing as subscripts in the chemical formula indicate the number of atoms of the element immediately before the subscript. If no subscript appears, one atom of that element is present.
What does the number represent in platinum-195?
It represents the atomic number and atomic mass. Mass number is the superscript Atomic number is the subscript
A formula is used to represent what in chemistry?
Either a single atom of the element, if there is no subscript number in the formula, or the number of atoms of the element commonly joined to each other in a polyatomic but mono-elemental molecule of the element if the formula does include a subscript number.

What is the formula for the 5 following compounds potassium bromide iron III sulfate copper II chloride tetraphosphorus heptanitride ammonium carbonate?
potassium bromide - KBr iron (III) sulfate - Fe[subscript 2](SO[subscript 4])[subscript 3] copper (II) chloride - CuCl[subscript 2] tetraphosphorous heptanitride - P[subscript 4]N[subscript 7] ammonium carbonate - (NH[subscript 4])CO[subscript 3]
