Chemical formulas

This site aims to help you find out information on the chemical formula of many common chemicals and household substances. Chemical symbols from the periodic table are used for the individual elements. eg. H for hydrogen, O for oxygen and N for nitrogen. These symbols are used to construct the chemical formula of a substance. Eg. water, H2O and ammonia, NH3
