you cannot change or destroy subscripts
Not every chemical formula requires subscript. For example table salt is NaCl, sodium chloride. No subscript. But most chemical formulae do require subscript, such as water, H2O.
1. You cannot change the subscript just to help you balance the equation. You can only balance an equation by using whole-number coefficients written at the beginning of a substance. 2. If no subscript is present, you can't just add one to help you balance the equation for same reason listed above.
The superscript for platinum is Pt2+ and the subscript for platinum is Pt.
The subscript numbers give you the chemical composition of the compound. Hence it cannot be changed. E.G. water is H2O and cannot be written as anything else. likewise, carbon dioxide is always CO2. I hope this answers your question
In a binary nonmetal compound, a subscript tells us the ratio of atoms present in the compound. Each subscript represents the number of atoms of that element in the compound. For example, in CO2, the subscript 2 indicates that there are two oxygen atoms for each carbon atom.
Subscribe can be change
You are not able to format a single character as subscript, but you can change the entire ledged text to subscript. Right-click on the ledged, select Font, and click on the Subscript option.
It not only can change but really DOES change the formula.Changing the subscript in a chemical formula changes the number of atoms to which the particular subscript belongs. Doing this will change the formula completely, making it representative of another substance completely.
It cannot be part of the array.
Coefficients are used to balance equations because if you change the subscript, than you would change the substance.
ctrl = for subscript ctrl shift = for superscript
Well, this is normal, and it is the smallest font we can get. However, if you put in subscript, it looks like this: Subscript However, I might recommend making a font size change feature in the future.
the subscript g after H2O indicates that it is water vapour, a gas, which is what the subscript g stands for. If there was a subscript s after the H2O, it would mean that H2O is in a solid form as ice. If there was a subscript l it means that H2O is in the liquid form as water.
If you mean using subscript (for example H2SO4) on WikiAnswers - Type your text as normal, then go back and highlight the text you want to change, and press the button on the blue line above - that's labelled X2

Click the Subscript button in the Font group of the Home tab.
