Molecular formula

Parse a molecular formula.

var carbonicAcid = MolecularFormula.Parse("H2CO3");

Or create a molecular formula by merging elements and other molecular formulas.

var sulfuricAcid = ChemicalElement.H * 2 + ChemicalElement.S + ChemicalElement.O * 4;
var ethanol = MolecularFormula.Parse("CH3") + MolecularFormula.Parse("CH2") + MolecularFormula.Parse("OH");
var iron = ChemicalElement.Fe;

Test conservation of mass.

// 2 Na + 2 H₂O = 2 NaOH + H₂
Console.WriteLine(MolecularFormula.ConservationOfMass(
    new List<MolecularFormula>
    {
        { ChemicalElement.Na, 2 },
        { ChemicalElement.H * 2 + ChemicalElement.O, 2 }
    },
    new List<MolecularFormula>
    {
        { ChemicalElement.Na + ChemicalElement.H + ChemicalElement.O, 2 },
        ChemicalElement.H * 2
    }
)); // -> True
