to be considered more risk averse than b, then a should also ï¬nd that the additional expected payoï¬ associated with x is not large enough to oï¬set the additional risk associated with x.
a particle composed of two nonmetal atoms. coefficient. a digit in front of a chemical formula that helps to balance an equation; a digit that helps to balance the number of atoms of each element on the left side of an equation with those on the right side of the equation. subscript.
There are essentially three steps to the process: 1  Write the unbalanced equation. Chemical formulas of reactants are listed on the lefthand side of the equation. 2  Balance the equation. Apply the Law of Conservation of Mass to get the same number of atoms of every element on each side of the equation. Tip: Start by balancing an element that appears in only one reactant and product. Once one element is balanced, proceed to balance another, and another, until all elements are balanced. Balance chemical formulas by placing coefficients in front of them.
