is there a way of entering scientific equations on word i.e. H20 but the 2 in the smaller size?

yes use MS word types two in subscript then copy it over to you message

To write a very very very LARGE or SMALL decimal number

You are talking about subscripts.  To type X followed by a little 2 in microsoft word do the following:\n1)Type X\n2)Go to format->font check box next to subscript\n3)Type 2\n4)Go to format->font UNcheck box next to subscript\nDone\n\nA better option for mathematical formulas in Word is using a microsoft equation 3.0 object.\n1)Insert -> Object\n2)Microsoft Equation 3.0

Microsoft Excel supports both scientific notation and the engineering notation variant.\n\nEnter a number such as 12,345,678 in a cell\nSelect the cell\nSelect menu bar "Format > Cells ... > Number".\nFor scientific notation, select "Scientific" and select the number of digits of precision (say 3) and the number will reformat as 1.23E+07.\n\nFor engineering notation, select "Custom" and find the format that looks like ##0.00E+00.  The number will reformat to 12.34E+06. Engineering notation traditionally formats numbers with exponents that are multiples of 3 corresponding to thousands, millions, billions, etc.\n\nI don't know of a way to select an arbitrary constant for the exponent.  Try reading the Microsoft help.

you have to click on it, then type to make it work, or highlight the text you want to format, than change the size etc\n\ni know this seems a bit obvious, but you would be surprised at the amount of daft mistakes some of my colleagues call me with

You may want to try 4Tex.  It can convert PC-Write files into LaTeX, then LaTeX into ASCII.  It's not a one-step conversion, but should do the job.

1. Start Microsoft Excel\n\n2. Before you type fractions in cells, preformat the group of cells that need to be displayed as fractions. Select the cells where you want to enter fractions, and then select Cells from the Format menu.\n\n3. Click Fraction in the Category list, and then, from the list on the right, select the type of fraction that you would like to display. Click OK.\n\n4. Now you are ready to type fractions in these preformatted cells. To type fractions in cells, just type the numerator, followed by a slash (/), then followed by the denominator—do not type spaces.\n\na. For example, 1/2 would represent one-half, as would 4/8 (Excel reduces fractions to their lowest terms). If you need to type a whole number and a fraction in one cell, type the whole number followed by a space, and then type the fraction (numerator, slash, denominator).

lotus is an older program. excel is best. but annoying when it comes to formulas.

You need to use your character map.\n\nOffice 2007 Word has that feature built in!\n\n§§

You can find the equation at wikipedia.com- Unofortunately, you can't write them here because you can't use the special characters

u can use microsoft word.

As far as I know it's not possible. You'll have to use Word or a similar program like in OpenOffice.org

A convenient way of using very large and very small numbers in chemistry is to use "scientific notation".  Any number can be represented as a number between 1 and 10 multiplied by 10 to the right power.  Example:  3,000 can be written as 3.000 x 10^3, where "^" means "to the power of".  10^3 is 1,000.
