The term is formula : the combination of symbols for elements and ions that make up a compound.
Compounds are one or more elements combined to make a compound. Like H2o is oxygen and hydrogen combined.
tae
Compounds have formulas that consist of symbols for elements and ions that are included in the molecules of the compound.The symbols (letters) are those of elements. These can be found on the periodic table. For example, H is hydrogen, He is helium and so on.
Compounds do not have symbols. Elements have symbols. Compounds have formulas (Latin formulae) that consist of a number of symbols for elements and ions.Some examples:Water - H2O (hydrogen and oxygen)Hydrochloric acid - HCl (hydrogen and chlorine)Table salt - NaCl (sodium and chlorine)Bleach/sodium hypochlorite - NaClO (sodium, chlorine, and oxygen)
That would depend on what that compound is/is made from.
Compounds can be described using element symbols and numbers
Compounds don't really have symbols, they have formulae or formulas, that consist of the symbols of the constituent elements and their ions.Examples are H2O (water) and ammonium sulfate (NH4)2SO4
These compounds are called products.
Hydrocarbons are compounds having carbon and hydrogen. Since they are compounds, they dont have symbols.
Respectively they represent elements and compounds.
Compounds can be described using element symbols and numbers
they are called inorganic compounds
