Excelchat Expert
26/02/2018 - 07:53
you mean how to write the 10^-pH equation on column B?
Excelchat Expert
26/02/2018 - 07:55
a bit explanation please, seems like this is a math problem.
Excelchat Expert
26/02/2018 - 07:55
And I have minimal knowledge in math.
User
26/02/2018 - 07:57
are there any excel tools i could use to solve?
User
26/02/2018 - 07:57
and then graph?
User
26/02/2018 - 07:57
no it's chemistry
User
26/02/2018 - 07:58
but essentially i'm trying to get excel to solve
User
26/02/2018 - 07:58
just use the values in column A into the equation in B1
Excelchat Expert
26/02/2018 - 07:58
As an excel expert I can implement the calculations, I'm not aware of any tools that might use chemists in excel.
User
26/02/2018 - 07:58
it's just an equation solver
Excelchat Expert
26/02/2018 - 07:58
column A is the variable, right?
User
26/02/2018 - 07:58

User
26/02/2018 - 07:59
yes
Excelchat Expert
26/02/2018 - 07:59
Okay, the the result it the 10 exponential to minus value of pH, right?
User
26/02/2018 - 08:01
yes
Excelchat Expert
26/02/2018 - 08:02
if that's true then this is the required equation of excel =POWER(10,-A2)
User
26/02/2018 - 08:02
are u calculating by yourself or by excel
User
26/02/2018 - 08:02
ohhhh
Excelchat Expert
26/02/2018 - 08:02
Excel
Excelchat Expert
26/02/2018 - 08:02
=POWER(10,-A2)
User
26/02/2018 - 08:02

Excelchat Expert
26/02/2018 - 08:02

Excelchat Expert
26/02/2018 - 08:03

User
26/02/2018 - 08:03
how would u implement that
User
26/02/2018 - 08:03
the =POWER(10,A2)
User
26/02/2018 - 08:03
do i have to do it for each cell
Excelchat Expert
26/02/2018 - 08:04
So, you write =POWER is a cell where you want to calculate the result.
User
26/02/2018 - 08:04
or can i put that into B1 and then drag
Excelchat Expert
26/02/2018 - 08:04
You can put it in the first cell
Excelchat Expert
26/02/2018 - 08:04
