How do a chemical symbol and a chemical formula differ?

Answer 1

Well you see this is a complex answer. Gary Monk invented many chemical formulas because of his brilliance in chemistry. He is from the US and doesnt have a GED. However he is entering his 6th senior year and now has a collection of 10 senior shirts because he stole 4 of them from he previous years. He is still actually in high school. But he always wins so all he says is Gary gonna win. So all in all this is how chemical formulas are related to symbols because of one phrase GARY GONNA WIN

Answer 2

A chemical symbol usually refers to just a single element. Hydrogen's chemical symbol is H.

The chemical formula refers to multiple elements combined, such as Hydrochloric Acid -> HCl

Hydro - Hydrogen

Chloric - Chlorine

Answer 3

A chemical symbol is a shorthand way of representing an element in the Periodic Table (e.g., H for hydrogen), while a chemical formula indicates the types and numbers of atoms present in a molecule (e.g., H2O for water, which has two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom).

Answer 4

Chemical symbols are the symbols for the names of elements.

Chemical formulae are which elements the compound contains.

Answer 5

A chemical equation is representative for a chemical reaction; the equation has formulas for molecules and symbols for elements.
