Learning basic concepts in chemistry using visual basic applications / Borhannuddin Arifin

In the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) age, we use computers for a variety of reasons e.g to write reports, manage database, solve mathematical problems and to serve the internet for educational, personal or commercial purposes. Most of the time we will use application softwares to do a given task. There are softwares such as Visual Basic (VB) that can be used to create graphical user interface application programs to solve problems that are
of interest to us. This work, which is still at its early stage of implementation, will demonstrate the use of VB by creating a simple application program known as ChemVB. Basic concepts in chemistry such as conversion of units and calculation of molecular weight of a compound will be demonstrated. This work can be expanded to include other topics in chemistry.
