- The purpose of this program is to be able to quickly
- and accurately obtain the molecular weight of a given
- formula. MacFormula allows you to find either the
- average mass or the exact mass. You would find the exact
- mass, for instance, if you wanted to know what to expect
- from a high resolution mass spectrum.
- You also have the option of performing an elemental
- analysis on your inputted formula. I think the usefulness
- of this feature is self-explanatory.
- Finally, you are also able to input the number of
- milligrams of a given substance and calculate how many
- millimoles it would be. This function is also reversable.
- I use this feature quite often in the lab when I am doing
- a reaction and I quickly want to know how much 5 mmoles
- would weigh (for instance).
