Zoluto

Zoluto is a Molarity calculator developed in Java language

Zoluto is currently in its stable version 3.0.

The program can now calculate multi-compound solutions and brings a list of 48 of the most commonly used solutions in cell biology laboratories.

In this latest version, the possibility of calculating with radioactive isotopes was added.

Convert between Molar concentration units and grams / Liter.

Calculate the necessary mass of a solute to prepare a given solution.

Calculate the initial volume of a stock solution for the same purpose.

Calculate the final volume of a dilution.

Calculate the final concentration that a dilution will have.

Create, import and export a list of compounds to be used in calculations.

Save and print the results.

1) The program does not consider the volume occupied by the solid solute.

At the moment the program considers that the volume that the solid compound occupies is “zero”, therefore one must be cautious, since results can be obtained where X grams of compound actually occupy more volume than the final volume of the solution. (this will be resolved in a future release)

2) _The program does not contemplate concentrating a solute by evaporation.

In the vast majority of cases, to prepare a solution, the solute is available as a drug in its pure state or as a stock solution with a higher concentration than the one intended to be obtained.

3) _For the moment the program does not contemplate limiting the maximum solubility of a compound.

This limitation means that a solution cannot be prepared because the "CALCULATED CONCENTRATION" exceeds the maximum solubility of the compound in the solvent used. Crazy results such as concentrations of 120,000 kg / L or 10,000,000 Molar may appear.

Common sense is recommended in such cases.
