        Dear people,
        A friend of mine is working in inorganic chemistry. She has performed
complexation experiments between a ligand and different divalent metals in
solution (using a constant ligand concentration and increasing metal
concentrations). She has followed the formation of the complex (or in many
cases of several complexes with different steoiquiometries) by UV-vis. Now
it is time to analyze the data, and she does not have much experience on that.
        I know there are programs that can help you to calculate the constants for
the formation of the complexes using UV data, for instance. Usually, these
kind of programs are also able to give you a plot representing the
population profile for the different species formed upon changing the
concentration of the metal.
        Might anybody suggest me such a software??. Do you know of any program
that might be freely downloaded from the net??.
        Thank you very much in advance. Any help will be really appreciated!!!
        Best regards, bye-bye!!
