For your example when Oxygen: O2, here are the steps:

1. Highlight the number "2".
2. Right Click on the highlighted number.
3. Scroll down to "font" and click it. (a dialog box opens)
4. Look for the box marked "superscript" and place a check in it.
5. Click "OK".

Good Luck!

Highlight the 2 and right click. The click on Font. Use subscript to make chemical symbols and superscript for exponents.

In O2, Highlight 2 and select Format, Font and under effect select Subscript.

For C1, highlight 1 and select Format Font and under effect select superscript
