Science Calculator Version 3.1 - Free edition

This is a scientific calculator that can also calculate molecular mass. From this main calculator many other calculators can be called, as well as converters, lists of reference data and a science glossary system.

Requirements to use.

The calculator requires a PC with Internet Explorer installed.

The calculator does not require any other software, and does not require connection to the Internet.

The calculator is downloaded as an installation file after purchase.

This file is approximately 4.5 MB in size.

Instructions on how to download the file are sent in an email immediately following purchase.

Functions of the Science Calculator.

The calculator can perform the normal functions of a scientific calculator, and can also calculate atomic mass and molecular mass. This enables the molecular formula of a molecule to be incorporated into an equation for calculation. For example: - Entering 4 * H2O gives the molecular mass of 4 mol of water molecules.

All calculations performed by the calculator are recorded in a note pad area for cutting and pasting elsewhere.

Up to 10 result values can be stored in memory and later recalled back into calculator.

The calculator has a text pad area where a longer calculation can be prepared before cutting and pasting into the calculator.

Drop down lists can also be used to write information into the text pad area.

These drop down lists include the following: -

A list of over 400 common compounds, together with their chemical name, molecular formula and molecular mass.

A list of elements that can be called by element name, atomic number or chemical symbol.

A list of over 50 science constants.

A list of SI unit prefixes.

User tools.

Other calculators, converters and science tools can be called from the main calculator including: -

A triangle calculator that calculates length of sides, angles and area of a right triangle or an oblique triangle.
