Abstract: "Through this project, we were interested in determining different algorithms that will help current students do lab calculations, help tutors to tutor other students, and better their understanding of chemistry. One of the larger goals of this project was to make lab work easier for current college students as this is a much more efficient way to do lab calculations. These programs have helped students determine the efficiency of different reactions and determine the right concentrations to get a desired rate. These programs will also be used as a tool for tutors to check their students' work. The balancing and redox reaction procedures is a much more efficient way to do lab work and check tutee’s work. The limiting reaction, vapor pressure, and phase change TI-84 programs are an efficient way to work through different labs involving these types of problems. Through this project, we hoped to help students understand how important chemistry is in everyday life by giving applicable examples for different reactions. Surveys were conducted for the classes that were taught how to use the algorithms and have been included in this study to validate our work. Throughout this project we became proficient in calculating different kinds of reactions, learned how to make calculator algorithms, discovered the best way to transfer information from one calculator to another, and hope to publish some of our algorithms for future students to use."
