  2. Chemical formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_formula

    A chemical formula is a way of presenting information about the chemical proportions of atoms that constitute a particular chemical compound or molecule, using chemical element symbols, numbers, and sometimes also other symbols, such as parentheses, dashes, brackets, commas and plus (+) and minus (−) signs.

  3. Subscript and superscript - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subscript_and_superscript

    Subscripts are used in chemical formulas. For example, the chemical formula for glucose is C 6 H 12 O 6 (meaning that it is a molecule with 6 carbon atoms, 12 hydrogen atoms and 6 oxygen atoms). The chemical formula of the water molecule, H 2 O, indicates that it contains two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.

    Spaces within a formula must be directly managed (for example by including explicit hair or thin spaces). Variable names must be italicized explicitly, and superscripts and subscripts must use an explicit tag or template. Except for short formulas, the source of a formula typically has more markup overhead and can be difficult to read.

    The most common regeneration process is the pyrohydrolysis process, applying the following formula: [25] 4 FeCl 2 + 4 H 2 O + O 2 → 8 HCl + 2 Fe 2 O 3. By recuperation of the spent acid, a closed acid loop is established. [7] The iron(III) oxide by-product of the regeneration process is valuable, used in a variety of secondary industries. [25]
