It would be nice to have mhchem
enabled, by adding
TeX: {
extensions: ["mhchem.js"]
}
to the mathjax configuration. This would be useful to write chemical reactions.
I've marked this as status-deferred since it recently came up again after three years of minimal activity and interest. If someone wants this feature, let's have a fresh thread about it.
mhchem
it would be nice to have a link to a summary of what it is and how it works. Even the official LateX package documentation if the MathJax implementation adheres well. $\endgroup$\require{mhchem}
in order to load mhchem as a one-off for the answer you are writing. E.g.,$\require{mhchem} \ce{H20}$
. You only need to use\require{mhchem}
once on the page. $\endgroup$$\require{mhchem}$
loads the chemistry package, but$\require{physics}$
doesn't seem to load the physics package. For instance,$\require{physics}\dv[n]{f}{x}$
doesn't render. Any idea why? $\endgroup$\require{}
only loads extensions that are in the core MathJax distribution. Themhchem
extension is there because I did a version of it some time ago, but the physics extension is a third-party extension. So it can't be loaded in that way unless the site sets it up specifically to allow that, which is not the case here. $\endgroup$
