ABSTRACT:
Among many chemistry softwares, GChem Software has its own importance. GChem is a part of GNOME ChemistryUtils and it includes various applications like GChemPaint, GChem3D, GChemCalc, GSpectrum etc. GChem is a multi document application and is a bonobo server so that chemistry can be embedded in other Gnome applications. GChemPaint application is a two dimensional chemical structures editor for the GNOME2 desktop and allows for two-dimensional structural drawing; GChem3D application is a three dimensional structure viewer; GChemCalc application is a simple chemical calculator for molecular formula and for raw formula calculations; GSpectrum application is a spectrum viewer. GCrystal helps to edit and display crystalline structures. GChemTable is a chemistry elements periodic table application. It is free and open online software distributed under the GNU GPL license and written in C++ but does not use gtkmm. It can be used on Windows OS or LINUX OS. GChem softwares are very useful for students, teachers, researchers, educators, computational researchers.
