Coefficients & SubscriptsCoefficients & Subscripts

• Subscript number – number of atoms in a molecule

• Coefficient – the number of molecules

When you count atoms, remember to When you count atoms, remember to multiply the coefficient number and multiply the coefficient number and the subscript number.the subscript number.
