New iPhone app to explore the periodic table
Posted on July 14th, 2010 in General
Apple’s iPhone has become one of the most sought-after gadgets of recent years, with downloadable applications for the phone ranging from checking the weather forecast, to planning dinner parties, and from useful phrasebooks while on holiday to creating custom exercise and training work-outs.
One of the newer apps to appear, which comes courtesy of American company EMD Chemicals, is the “Periodic Table of the Elements” app. The application promises users to access a wealth of information in a “sleek, elegant, and user-friendly” user-face on their iPhone. Simple facts such as the electron configuration, relative mass, atomic density of the elements are all available, along with the history of the periodic table; interesting facts on who discovered what elements and how each element got its name are all included.
The online version of the Periodic Table app has already proved successful, with both users and e-learning experts praising its innovation and ease of use.
The app is free to download on iTunes
