Question about chemistry

[Electro]

Okay so I got this worksheet for homework, and I must of zoned out when he explained it because I can't remember learning it.

It's asking me to write the name and the number of atoms of a covalent bond. Here's the problem. BTW all the numbers mean the subscript.

CO4(PH)2

I am stumped, please help. Please explain it too.

We done this a few weeks ago dahm
Can't remember how you do it

I understand it's asking for the number of atoms between a covalent bond, and the name of the atom, but between which one? Or all of them?

All.

One carbon atom (C)
Four oxygen atoms (O4)
Two phosphrous hydroxide (not sure if that's the real name) molecules, thus making 2 phosphorus and 2 hydrogen atoms.

That comes out to nine atoms (of carbon, oxygen, phosphorus, and hydrogen)

I think there's a subscript tool on this forum, lets try, CH₄ is Methane
_{Looks like it worked}

Also, did you mean to say number of electrons in the covalent bonds or number of atoms in the covalent bonds?

Atoms

I would most likely think it would be number of electrons, as the number of atoms is fairly easy to work out. If you need to find the number of electrons, you'll need a periodic table that shows the atomic number for the elements in the covalent bond.

if they're learning about the basics it makes sense that it'd be atoms.
it'd teach them how to read chemical formulas, which is p important for chemistry.

electrons would probably be in the next few lessons or something
