Question

What are the rules for writing chemical symbols of elements?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Each element is given its own chemical symbol.

Explanation:

Each element is given its own chemical symbol, like H for hydrogen or O for oxygen. Chemical symbols are usually one or two letters long. Every chemical symbol starts with a capital letter, with the second letter written in lower case. For example, Mg is the correct symbol for magnesium, but mg, mG and MG are wrong.

Answer 2

Explanation:

The first  word of the name of the element will be capital.If it contains 2 letters then second will be lower case.

FOR EXAMPLE:

C for Carbon.

Ar for Argon.

Some elements will be written in their Latin name because the material was known in ancient times.

FOR EXAMPLE:

Iron =Fe which means Ferrum in Latin.
