1 Production of bile. 2  Bile enables you to digest fat and it is a way in which your body excretes excess cholesterol. 3  Production of fat and also burning off excess fat. 4  Your liver produces cholesterol and other fats, and it has the ability to burn fat in your body for energy.
The subscripts indicate the number of units of either an atom(as ion), l or molecule(as ion- called a radical) in a chemical formula. A unit of water, H2O is a molecule coâ¦nsisting of two units of hydrogen and one unit of Oxygen.
In order to make it easier to describe elements and molecules, chemical formulas are used. For example, H represents one atom of hydrogen and O represents one atom of oxygen. If we want to represent two atoms of hydrogen, instead of writing H H, we write H2.The subscript 2 means that two atoms of the element hydrogen have joined together to form a molecule.A subscript is only used when more than one atom is being represented. The graphic below illustrates the formula for water using symbols. Some more common molecules and their chemical formula.eview: 1  Chemical formulas are used to describe the types of atoms and their numbers in an element or compound. 2  The atoms of each element are represented by one or two different letters. 3  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.
