So recently my chemistry professor and i have decided to build a small program that would allow chemistry students to test their chemical naming knowledge. The system tests both organic and inorganic substances, provides questions using images, equations and of course chemical compounds.

Technically speaking, the system had to be “refresh-free” and feel like a desktop application of some sort. So i had a few options, one was to use Ajax and PHP, and the other was to use adobe AIR. Myself, I’m a PHP developer so i went with the traditional ajax/php combo. The result came out pretty nice. We worked on revising it for about 2-3 weeks, changing both chemical and technical aspects. Although its a work that is still in development, the application itself can easily be used at its current state.

To help us try it out please head over to.

Enjoy!

I was recently working on a project that required a chemical equation formatter for the WEB. So i decided to write one, and you guys can try it out here.

You can pretty much plug-in any chemical equation and it should convert all the superscripts and subscripts automatically for you. Enjoy! I might even release the source code soon.
