Aalsmeer, The Netherlands – Mekentosj BV, winner of three Apple Design Awards for their Mac desktop applications, is pleased to announce the availability of Solutions, their first scientific application for iPhone and iPod touch. Solutions is a handy calculator for making chemical solutions in the lab or at school. It makes those nasty molarity calculations a breeze and it’s fun to use too.

Whether you are a chemist, biologist or student, no one likes the calculations needed before making chemical solutions. Solutions is the solution.

How many grams of caffeine do you need to make a 1 molar coffee solution? What’s the molarity of water? In what volume do I have to dissolve 10 grams of glucose for my experiment? Never before it was so easy, and without mistakes. Solutions tells you straight away.

And did we tell already that it puts the complete PubChem and Chebi databases in your pocket?

Features:
* Intuitive and easy to use user interface to calculate volume, weight, and molarity on the basis of molecular weights
* Enter a molecular formula and Solutions calculates the Molecular Weight instantly
* Or even easier, look up the Molecular Weight of almost any chemical using built-in chemical database search engines
