Slide Number 1
Title Slide |
Hello everyone.
Welcome to this tutorial on Charts in GChemTable. |
Slide Number 2
Learning Objectives |
In this tutorial, we will learn about,
|
Slide Number 3
System Requirement |
For this tutorial, I am using:
Ubuntu Linux OS version 12.04. GChemPaint version 0.12.10 GChemTable version 0.12.10 |
Slide Number 4
Pre-requisites |
To follow this tutorial you should be familiar with
For relevant tutorials on GChemPaint, please visit our website. |
Let's open a new GChemTable window. | |
Click on Dash Home>>
Type “gchemtable” in the serach bar that appears. |
Click on Dash Home.
In the search bar that appears type “gchemtable”. |
Click on Periodic table of the elements icon. | Click on Periodic table of the elements icon. |
Click on View menu select Elements Charts.
Point to the submenu. |
Click on View menu, select Element Charts.
A submenu opens, displaying a list of options. |
Click on Electro-negativity. | Click on Electro-negativity.
A chart of Pauling Electro-negativity versus Atomic number(Z) is displayed. |
Point to the chart. | In the chart, highest Electro-negativity value is '4'. |
Point to Close button. | I will close the Electro-negativity chart. |
Select Melting Point chart. | Likewise, different charts are available under View menu,
Element charts. I will select Melting Temperature chart. |
Point to the highest Melting Point. | A chart of Melting point versus Atomic number(Z) is displayed.
In this chart, Carbon has highest melting point. |
Point to Close button. | I will close Melting point chart. |
Now, let's learn how to create a "Custom" chart. | |
Go to View menu select Element Charts >>
Navigate to Custom and click on it. |
Go to View, select Element Charts and
click on Custom. |
Point to Customize Chart window.
Point to GChemTable Graph window |
Customize Chart window and
GChemTable Graph window appear on the screen. |
Point Customize Chart window.
Point Graph hierarchy tree Point to Graph preview |
Customize Chart window has,
