Chemical formulas are used to describe the types of atoms and their numbers in an element or compound. The atoms<span> of each element are represented by one or two different letters. When more than one atom of a specific element is found in a molecule, a subscript is used to indicate this in the chemical formula.</span>

Explanation:

A subscript is a number that is placed below an alphabet on the bottom right side.

For example, for H_{2} molecule 2 is the subscript.

A subscript indicates the number of atoms present in a substance or molecule.

For example, in H_{2}SO_{4} the subscripts indicate that there are two hydrogen atoms, one sulfur atom, and four oxygen atoms.
