Chemical formula

Example: Balanced Chemical Equations with Subscripts Water: $$\ce{H2O}$$ Carbon dioxide: $$\ce{CO2}$$ Iron(III) hydroxide (Rust reaction): $$\ce{4Fe + 3O2 + 6H2O -> 4Fe(OH)3}$$ Copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate: $$\ce{CuSO4 * 5H2O}$$ Chemical Formulas in Chemistry Chemical formulas are the symbolic representations of chemical substances. They show the elements present in a compound and the ratio in which the atoms of these elements combine. Chemical formulas are essential for understanding the composition, structure, and behavior of compounds in chemical reactions. 1. What is a Chemical Formula? A chemical formula uses symbols of elements and numerical subscripts to represent the composition of a substance. For example, the formula for water is: $$ \ce{H2O} $$ This indicates that each water molecule is made up of 2 atoms of hydrogen and 1 atom of oxygen. 2.
