what is difference between superscript and subscript formatting..?

Answer 1

when you write H_O i.e H2O IN THIS 2 is subscript and in formula of ( a + b) ² , 2 is superscript

Answer 2

If you are asking what tags to use. <sup> is for superscript and <sub> is for subscript.

If you are wondering what they purpose of them is. Superscript is used for exponents. Think 2 squared or 4^15th. I usually see subscript for molecular formulas or maybe numbering similar variables in an equation.

Your average website probably won't use either of them very often.
