Abstract: Program CONVM is a program written in U/W FOCAL

(FOCAL8-301) for the purpose of providing quick interconversions

between mass and volumetric units for gases. As an example, convert 100

parts per million of carbon monoxide to its equivalent in units of

milligrams per cubic meter. CONVUM contains a library of the more

common elements and permits the user to enter the chemical structure of

the compound if the molecular weight is not known. By using the ideal

gas law, the program computes the interconversion of units from mass to

volumetric, or vice versa, over a range of values and prints the results on

the teletypewriter.
