Best Answer

the subscript g after H2O indicates that it is water vapour, a gas, which is what the subscript g stands for. If there was a subscript s after the H2O, it would mean that H2O is in a solid form as ice. If there was a subscript l it means that H2O is in the liquid form as water.

What do you call a subscript in a chemical equation and what is it's function?

eg. O2 (where the 2 is subscript) This shows that there are TWO INTRAMOLECULARLY-BONDED atoms, ie. two atoms joined together. Or, if you are referring to (g), (l), (s) and (aq) subscripts: (s) - solid (g) - gas (l) - liquid (aq) - aqueous, or dissolved in water
