Hi everyone,
I am updating my blog again. This time I have added the molecular mass Calculator. I have merged my work in the kalzium branch back to the trunk. I have changed a few files from libkdeedu/libscience for this.
After attempting to use the Gnome Chemical utils in vain, I used the calculator already present in Kalzium and improvised it.
Here are a few screenshots of the molecular mass calculator.
The calculator displays molecular mass and composition of the compound you input.
I have entered the formula CaSO4 (Calcuim Sulfate) here. I get the molecular mass as 136. I get the percentages of the elements too.
I have also used the idea of aliases for example Me ( Methyl group ) = CH3 and Et ( Ethyl group ) = C2H5 and so on.
In the following case, I have entered the compound toluene, which is Me-Ph which expands to ( CH3 ) ( C6H5 ).
We can also add our own aliases. Use the aliases tab of the molecular mass calculator widget, add a valid alias.
The picture shows default aliases that are available. I haven’t added many though.
