Molecular Mass Calculator
Formula:M = Σ(n_i × A_i) where M is the molecular mass, n_i is the number of atoms of element i, and A_i is the atomic mass of element i.
Introduction to Molecular Mass Calculator
This calculator estimates the molecular mass of a chemical compound based on its formula. The molecular mass (or molecular weight) is the sum of the atomic masses (in atomic mass units, amu) of the atoms in the chemical formula of a substance. It is a fundamental concept in chemistry, as it helps in understanding the composition of molecules and the stoichiometry of chemical reactions.
Parameter usage:
chemicalFormula= a string representing the chemical formula of the substance (e.g., H2O for water).
Data validation
The formula validates the presence of recognized chemical elements and returns an error for unrecognized elements.
