chemistry with left superscripts

[Julie Sumwalt]

Hi,

I've been asked for help in brailling a couple of lines of chemistry, but I'm really rusty, myself, and I know the Code changed last year. Can you confirm or correct my braille?

I don't see your braille

How's this?

The braille is correct if the print is read as two equations

[Julie Sumwalt]

It is?? Thank you!

It's hard to be positive without context. Your interpretation is that each line constitutes an equation, with all components in Nemeth. My initial reading was that High and Low were labels which would mean they are not part of the technical material.  Context would make the meaning more clear. But regardless, if your question is about the left superscripts, that part of the transcription stays the same.

Chiming in...

Regarding where to place the code switch indicators, without more context it is not possible to understand which words are math (part of the chemical equation) and which are not.

If these two bulleted items are one after the other as shown in your image, and if all six words are to be transcribed inside the switches, then you can open Nemeth before the first bullet and terminate Nemeth after the last word. Bullets can appear in either UEB context or in Nemeth context without switching.
