The method of subscripting the 2 in the carbon dioxide chemical formula
decreases the size of the 2 in addition to dripping it relative to the
font baseline. If you do not want the point size reduced, there are at
least two other options:

1. Use Equation editor or

2. Use the lower baseline command.

If you want more details about these methods, let us know.

Thutok,
For yet another solution, add a superscript subscript button to your
formatting toolbar, to do that click on the tiny little arrow at the end of
the toolbar (toolbar options), choose format and add/delete buttons, click
next to superscript and subscript, two buttons will be added. Now select
your text and click on the appropriate button.
