Instructions: Subscripts are indicated using an underscore, i.e molecular oxygen is indicated as O_2, while water is H_2 O (the space after the 2 is optional).

If the subscript requires more than one character, it is placed in curly brackets, i.e., H_{2x}O would put the 2 and the x below the line.

Superscripts are indicated using the caret (^), and curly brackets are used to group superscripts also. The exponential, e^{2x^2} is " e to the power (2 times x squared) " . Note, the x is squared, not the 2, (2*x*x) and all of this is in the exponent.
