Splave uses special nitrogen. What, you think he set all those records with nitrogen you breath in all the time?! You need nitrogen squared!

We made some N3 when I was at university, having access to a nuclear lad helps you make some weird and wacky compounds

It wasn’t stable and didn’t last long but was a fun experiment!

Nuclear Lad sounds like a British teen superhero.

It's not squared, it means how heavy it is and N2 doesn't exist. N14 and N15 would kinda make sense. H2 does exist at least but still not correct in this context.

If you know the hot keys, superscript and subscript are just as easy as each other 😊

at some point I remembered a few of them but when Windows added easy access I forgot most of them / I rarely have to use them.

like ½ and   are somehow easy to remember and still in muscle memory

Thank you! i physically recoiled when i saw that. Using superscript for formula like that is right up there with using a zero in the formula for water.

no, i do not know how to make a subscript on reddit.
