Chemistry is a [Java](https://openjdk.java.net/) library designed to handle chemical types.

It has enums for all nuclides (i.e., all elements and isotopes) and provides a type for molecules (which needs an internet connection).

The molecule types provides an implementation for the `Texable` interface from the [jatex](https://github.com/uhoefel/jatex) module, such that it can easily return proper LaTeX code.

Some examples:

  ```java

  Molecule m = new Molecule("magnesium dioxide");

  m.iupac(); // gets the official IUPAC name

  

  Isotope.ofElement(Element.Ar); // the list of argon isotopes

  Isotope.named("deuterium"); // gets the enum value for deuterium

  Element.get(ElementCategory.ALKALI_METAL); // gets all alkali metals

  Element.Og.isotopes(); // gets the isotopes of oganesson

  Element.He.group(); // gets the IUPAC group number of helium

  ```

Installation

============

The artifact can be found at maven central:

```xml

    eu.hoefel

    chemistry

    2.0.0

```

Requirements

============

Chemistry is designed to work with Java 21+.

Note that version 1.3.0 removed the dependency on javafx, as it seemed an unnecessarily big dependency for what it achieved.
