The term EXPONENT was introduced by Michael Stifel (1487-1567) in\n  1544 in Arithmetica integra.  He wrote, "Est autem 3 exponens ipsius octonarij, & 5 est exponens 32 & 8 est exponens numeri 256" (Smith vol. 2, page 521). \n\nThe Latin translates roughly as\n\n  But 3 is the exponent of that same eight, and 5 is the exponent of 32, and 8 is the exponent of the number 256.\n\nSee link below for more explanation

Latin, originally.  \n\n"The syllable names come from a formerly well-known medieval hymn, entitled Ut queant laxis, in which each successive musical phrase, corresponding to a half line of the first verse, starts on the next higher scale degree in the major scale. The first syllable in each half line corresponds to the solfege syllable, with the exception of the first, "Ut," which was changed to the more singable "Do." The original hymn did not start a phrase upon the seventh scale degree. To fill in this gap, at a later time the Ti (or sometimes Si) was added to the repertoire."

Grappling with the axiomatic logic is not suitable for most of\nus and these readings are difficult.  Let me attempt an inadequate simplifi-\ncation.  I would say a number "belongs to a concept" and is an\nextension of that concept and then statements about numbers correspond to\n"identities of concept".\n\nIn the sense of counting, one apple and one orange represent identical\nconcepts even if apples are not oranges, so we write 1 = 1.  Now 1 + 1 or\nfor that matter 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 (repeating)  are represented in the\nsense of identity by other symbols which, if arabic numerals are used, we\nwrite as 2 or 5.  The symbols are just compact notation for representation\nof an identical "concept".  I would say that number is not anything\nphysical nor is it subjective.  This may not be very satisfying but deep\nphilosophical questions about numbers may always remain unanswered in very\nsatisfying ways.

The Roman numerals are written in parentheses after the cation (the positive ion) to show the oxidation state of the cation.  Example:  CuO is Cu(II)O, Cu*2O is Cu(I)*2O.
