Jordie Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 I couldn't find the proper key combination to write the subscript part of it but is this correct? H5C3O would mean Five Hydrogen Atoms, Three Carbon Atoms and One Oxygen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skye Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 You would normally write it with the carbon at the start: C3H5O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordie Posted October 14, 2004 Author Share Posted October 14, 2004 You would normally write it with the carbon at the start: C3H5O Would it really matter if I wrote it as I did though or is it just good habits? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5614 Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 well obviously we know what you are talking about but it is not actually correct, in that it is the wrong way to right it, its likes writting jardy instead of jordie, similar, we know what your talking about, but its wrong! i think in exams you would have not got the mark if that was your answer.
