a subscript
Number of atoms of that element in the molecule.
What is a number written below and to the side of a chemical symbol is called?
subscipt
Subscript
the number is 2 in h2o
the symbol of the element on the right hand corner of the symbol + or - the charge
The subscript that is to the right of the element symbol, no subscript means 1. Example H2O, 2 hydrogen 1 oxygen
The atomic number is usually written to the lower left of the atomic symbol. The atomic mass is usually written to the upper right of the atomic symbol. So, carbon-14 would look like this: 6C14
THE PLUS SIGN (+)an example is: sodium + oxygen --> sodium oxideNa2 + O --> Na2O
the number is 2 in h2o
A coefficient is the number that goes before an element when your balancing the equation. And a subscript is the number after the element. Subscripts are not changed when you balance the equation.
In a chemical formula, a subscript is a number written to the right and slightly below the symbol for the chemical element. If the subscript is 1, it is not written. The subscripts for the chemical formula for water, H2O, are 2 for hydrogen and 1 for oxygen. The subscripts for the chemical formula for glucose, C6H12O6, are 6 for carbon, 12 for hydrogen, and 6 for oxygen.
Right and down the symbol of a chemical element.
the symbol of the element on the right hand corner of the symbol + or - the charge
These subscripts are down the chemical symbol and at right. Example: O2
A chemical symbol for an element is one or two letters. These are found on the Periodic Table of elements. The chemical symbol is an abbreviation of the chemical element name.Example: O is the chemical symbol for Oxygen.K is the chemical symbol for Potassium.Pb is the symbol for lead.He is the symbol for helium.
is a number written to the right of a chemical symbol and slightly below it. It tells how many atoms of that element are in the compound. Below there are two atoms of oxygen Like the 2: O2
The subscript that is to the right of the element symbol, no subscript means 1. Example H2O, 2 hydrogen 1 oxygen
The subscript that is to the right of the element symbol, no subscript means 1. Example H2O, 2 hydrogen 1 oxygen
The subscript that is to the right of the element symbol, no subscript means 1. Example H2O, 2 hydrogen 1 oxygen
A power or exponent.
