The number in front of a molecule tells you how many molecules there are. It is called the coefficient.
Example:
The overall process (really a series of reactions) of photosynthesis can be written in a balanced equation as
6CO2 + 6H2O to form C6H12O6 + 6O2
In this equation there is only one glucose molecule (C6H12O6), but six of each of the other compounds, carbon dioxide, water, and oxygen.
It's called a coefficient, and it tells you how many of a certain molecule are in the formula. Ex: 2H2O tells you that there are 2 H2O molecules, so there are a total of 4 hydrogen and 2 oxygen atoms.
These numbers are the stoichiometric coefficients.
The number of molecules of the specific compound.
A coefficient, ANY NUMBER! :D

These coefficients show the number of molecules involved in the chemical reaction.
In a chemical Equation ,The reactants are on the left side of a chemical equation and the products are on the right side.The number in front of a chemical formula in a chemical equation is called atoms. They should be a balancing number on both the sides.
Unbalanced equation is calles skeletal equation. The difference between these equations is that the skeleton equation doesnot show the no. of atoms and molecules in the equation whereas the balanced chemical equation shows. Also the balanced chemical equation shows that the products and the reactants are solid, liquid, gas or aqueous.

Yes, that is true.
a coefficent in physical science means:a number in front of a chemical formula in an equation that indicates how many molecules or atoms of each reactant and product that are involved in a reaction
A balanced equation indicates the chemical formulas for the substances involved in the reaction and the number of molecules or moles of each substance in the reaction. This enables a chemist to calculate the amount of each reactant needed to produce a desired quantity of product.
Chemical formulas of reactants and products; number of molecules involved in the reaction.
Equation coefficients show the number of molecules involved in a chemical reaction.
In a balanced chemical equation the number of molecules or atoms are specified.
This is the number of molecules or atoms involved in the reaction.
In a chemical equation, coefficients represent the no. of molecules or atoms involved in a complete chem. reaction.
These coefficients show the number of molecules involved in the chemical reaction.
