Chemisty -


Okay, this is sort of an open ended question.

But do any of you know of an application that shows the atomic stucture of the elements?

Maybe one that will allow one to combine several elements, and show the change in the atomic structure?

Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike

Will Kalzium do what you are looking for? http://packages.debian.org/unstable/science/kalzium

There are some other possibilities:

I'm not a chemist, but I guess what I am looking for is something that is strictly interactive.

All I would want is something that would show the periodic table, and a user could select the element and it can display the atomic struture. Or if a user wants to select one or more, it will show the atomic structure....

I think Kalzium is as close as you will get to what you are looking for. It displays the periodic table (illustrated in ways that you choose). If you click on an element, it gives you the name, formula weight, date discovered, and other information.
