How to write subscript in google docs

If you are writing a scientific paper in MS Word, you are likely to use notations—words or numbers either raised or lowered above the normal writing line, and somewhat smaller in size than the regular text in the document.

You may use superscripts to denote very large numbers in the Scientific Notation, as this makes the number appear more compact.

For example, it is possible to write 1,000,000 as 1×10⁶, where 6 is the superscript.

Chemical formulas use subscripts to denote the structures of substances. For example, the chemical formula of water is H₂O, where 2 is the subscript.
