Chemical Formulas

Chemical Formula: An easy way for scientist to describe a molecule using the element symbols. H2OH2O C0 2 NaCl

REMEMBER… When you read a chemical formula, each new element begins with a capital letter. So if you see CO 2, you should think Carbon and Oxygen.

However… If you see a lower case letter in a chemical formula, it goes with the capital letter that comes before it. For example: If you see NaCl, you should think (Na)Sodium and (Cl)Chlorine.

Reading Chemical Formulas NaCl Sodium Chlorine

Reading Chemical Formulas H 2 O Hydrogen Oxygen Subscript – number that follows a symbol; subscript tells how many atoms of element are in molecule This subscript tells us there are 2 atoms of hydrogen in this formula. If no subscript is present, it is understood the subscript is 1. So there is 1 Atom of oxygen in this formula

Reading Chemical Formulas 2H 2 O Coefficient: The large number before an element symbol or compound that represents the number of elements or compounds. You multiply the coefficient by the subscript to find the number of atoms of each element. Hydrogen Oxygen The coefficient shows us there are 2 molecules of water in this formula. The coefficient in this formula tells us there are 4 hydrogen atoms and 2 oxygen atoms

Reading Chemical Formulas 2CO 2 Carbon Oxygen What elements are bonded to create this molecule of Carbon Dioxide? How many atoms of each element are in this molecule of Carbon Dioxide?
