What is the chemical formula for the oxygen we breathe?
The chemical formula for the oxygen in the air is O2, where the 2 should be a subscript.
What part of the chemical formula indicates the number of molecules or atoms involved?
The answer is 'subscript'
What is the subscript of oxygen dichloride?
The chemical formula of dichlorine monoxide is Cl2O - 2 is a subscript.
What chemical formula for oxygen gas?
O to the negative 2
When to use parenthesis when writing ionic compound formulas?
Parentheses are used in ionic compound formulas when multiple polyatomic ions are present. The parentheses are used to indicate a subscript that applies to all the elements inside the parentheses. For example, in the formula for calcium nitrate (Ca(NO3)2), the parentheses indicate that the nitrate ion (NO3) has a subscript of 2.
What are the di?
Diatomic elements consist of two atoms.The formula of these elements are always written with a subscript 2 in its symbol to indicate its molecular composition.examples: H2,O2.
What does the subscript 2 indicate in the formula?
there are two atoms in the molecule
What is the chemical formula for the oxygen we breathe?
The chemical formula for the oxygen in the air is O2, where the 2 should be a subscript.
What does the subscipt 2 indicate in the formula o2?
O2 meaning Oxygen, the subscript 2 means that oxygen generally doesn't run around as single atoms. Instead, oxygen pairs up, with each oxygen atom bonding with another to form a molecule.
What is the formula of a molecule of oxygen?
The formula of an oxygen molecule is O2 (2 is a subscript but now WA doesn't permit to write a subscript).15.9994 g/mol is the molecular mass of oxygen. Formula mass is a sum of atomic mass of atoms in the molecule. In O2 there are two oxygen so it will be about 32g/mol
Does an oxygen molecule contain carbon?
No. Oxygen is an element and contains only oxygen atoms. Its formula is O2 (where the 2 is a subscript).
What part of the chemical formula indicates the number of molecules or atoms involved?
The answer is 'subscript'
How many atoms are in an oxygen molecule O2?
Molecules of oxygen exist in two relatively stable allotropes: breathable oxygen with the formula O2, and ozone with the formula O3. The little number indicates that these molecules are composed of (respectively) two or three oxygen atoms.
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 is the subscript of oxygen dichloride?
The chemical formula of dichlorine monoxide is Cl2O - 2 is a subscript.
How do you get a little 2 on Microsoft Word that is at the bottom So for chemical formula like O2?
In Word 2007, highlight the 2 and right-click on it. Select "Font..." and check the box that says "Subscript"
What chemical formula for oxygen gas?
O to the negative 2
