You can change the limits only by changing the source.
It is also possible to use script for converting a text file into a LyX table.

Since I'm not a chemist, I don't know about such packages.
But you can use math macros (see the user guide).
Math macros are ok for a complex/long formula that appears quite often in
your text: you define it one time (which is a bit tedious) and then you can
use it all over the place. (See the attached lyx-file for an example)
If you have a lot of different fromulas, it might
