What is a subscript and where is it located in a chemical formula?

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.


How many atoms of hydrogen and oxygen are in glucose?

There are 12 atoms of hydrogen in a particle of glucose


How many grams of ethanol would be formed from the reaction of 0.250 kg of glucose?

The conversion equation of glucose to ethanol is: C{6}H{12}O{6} → 2C{2}H{5}OH + 2CO{2} (Where numbers in braces {} should be in subscript which I can't do here) Thus 1 mole of Glucose forms 2 moles of Ethanol. 1 mole of glucose weighs : 6×12 + 12×1 + 6×16 g = 180g 1 mole of ethanol weighs: 2×12 + 5×1 + 16 + 1 = 46 g → 180g of glucose makes 2×46 g = 92 g of ethanol → 0.250 kg glucose = 0.250 × 1000 g = 250 g → 0.250 kg glucose can produce 250 g ÷ 180 g × 92 g = 127 7/9 g ≈ 128 g of ethanol.


What part of the chemical formula indicates the number of molecules or atoms involved?

The answer is 'subscript'


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 subscript tell?

The subscript on an element indicates how many atoms of the element are present: ex: O2 - the 2 shows there are two oxygen's present C6H12O6(sugar)- there are 6 carbon 12 hydrogen and 6 oxygen
