How do you get a small 2 and 4 in H2SO4?
those are subscripts and mean that there are 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 sulfur atom and 4 oxygen atoms
How many atoms in 2H2o2?
4 2 hydrogen and 2 oxygen
What do the subscripts in the formula for ethane represent?
subscripts in a formula indicates the number of atoms in a molecule or the ratio of elements in a compound.
What two things make water?
Hydrogen and Oxygen The scientific formula is H20 Meaning 2 hydrogen, 1 oxygen
Ratio of hydrogen to oxygen atoms in starch?
Starch has a chemical formula C6H10O5. Therefore, the ration of Hydrogen to Oxygen is 10:5, or 2:1.

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 in 2H2o2?
4 2 hydrogen and 2 oxygen
How are a moleclue of hydrogen and a molecule of oxygen similar?
They both contain 2 atoms?
Hydrogen peroxide decomposed into simpler substances?
The hydrogen peroxide is both oxidized and reduced, to produce water and elemental oxygen.
What do subscripts in chemical equations tell about the equation?
The subscript in the equation tells you how many atoms of that element there are in the reaction. For example: H20 --> H2 + O2 Before the reaction there are 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen (the subscript 1 isn't shown). After the reaction there are 2 hydrogen atoms and 2 oxygen atoms. Keep in mind that this is a skeleton equation and isn't balanced yet.
What do subscripts in a chemical formula indicate?
Subscripts indicate the number of the preceding element Ie. in H2O there are two hydrogens (H) and one oxygen (O) or in C6H12O8 there are six carbon (C) twelve hydrogen (H) and eight oxygen (O) The number of atoms of the same element in the molecule
What do the subscripts in the formula for ethane represent?
subscripts in a formula indicates the number of atoms in a molecule or the ratio of elements in a compound.
What is in H2O?
2 hydrogen, one oxygen oxygen and hydrogen (2) Henceforth, H2O.
What is the point of subscripts in writing chemical formulas?
The point is to show the number of atoms of each element. However these are not the exact numbers. There are as many atoms, which could be zillions, that extend to the end of the element. They are instead in the lowest whole number ratio. For example, there are not 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom in water. There may be 200000000 hydrogen and 100000000 oxygen, but it simplifies to the lowest whole number ratio of 2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen. Hope that helped.

How many atoms are in the for CO2H4Ca?
The actual compound is written slightly different using subscripts. CO2H4Ca. There are.5 total atoms. The breakdown is as follows: 1 Carbon, 2 Oxygen, 4 Hydrogen, 1 Calcium.
