EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The objective of this experiment was to develop the basic
understanding of the powerful Microsoft Excel tool for arithmetic
calculation, data analysis, visualization, and management. The
different parameters calculated for the Biochemistry subject
where total marks 3684, average 78.4, maximum 95, and
minimum 54 were scored by the students.

Objective
The primary objective of this lab is to familiarize with Microsoft
Excel, a powerful tool for data analysis, visualization, and
management

Methodology
1. Introduction to Excel Interface Steps:
• Open Microsoft Excel.

Fig 1: Microsoft excel interface.

• Familiarize yourself with the Excel interface: Ribbon,


Worksheet, Cells, Rows, Columns, and Sheet Tabs.
a. Ribbon: Open Excel and locate the Ribbon at the top of
the screen. Notice the different tabs (Home, Insert, etc.).
Click on each tab to see the groups of commands
available. Fig 2: Ribbon

4
b. Worksheet & Workbook: Each sheet in excel is called
worksheet whereas different sheets when taken together
in a excel is called workbook.
c. Cells & Range: Inner section of a column and a row is
called cell. The selected cell in the spreadsheet is called
active cell. Collection of cells is called Range. Selected
cell is called active cell.

d. Rows: Numbers in the spreadsheet is called rows

Columns
Rows

e. Columns: alphabets in the spreadsheet is called
columns

f. Sheet Tabs: New sheet tab can be created by clicking ‘+’
sign beside the Sheet1.
• Explore the different tabs: Home, Insert, Page Layout,
Formulas, Data, Review, and View. Example:

2. Basic Data Entry and Formatting Steps:
• Enter sample data into a worksheet (e.g., a dataset of
chemical compounds and their properties).
• Practice basic formatting: changing font size, cell color, text
alignment, and cell borders. Use the “Format as Table”
feature to format your dataset.
Example:
Data Entry:
Enter the following data into cells A1 to D5:

• Formatting: Change the font size to 12, make the header


row bold, and colour it light blue. Adjust the column widths
to fit the data.
• Format as Table: Select the range A1 and use the “Format
as Table” feature from the Home tab.

3. Using Formulas and Functions
Steps:
• Learn basic arithmetic operations (e.g., SUM, AVERAGE,
MIN, MAX).
• Understand the use of relative and absolute cell references.
• Apply chemical engineering or biotechnology-specific
functions (e.g., calculating molarity, dilution factors).
Example:
1. Arithmetic Operations: In cell F1, type =SUM(B2:B5) to
calculate the total molecular weight.
In cell F2, type =AVERAGE(C2:C5) to find the average boiling
point.
2. Relative and Absolute References:
In cell G2, type =B2/$B$6 to find the ratio of the molecular weight
of each compoundto the molecular weight of the heaviest
compound (assuming B6 contains the value of the heaviest
compound).
3. Chemical/Biotech Calculations: To calculate molarity, use
the formula: Molarity = (grams of solute) / (molecular weight *
volume in liters). For example, to calculate the molarity of a 50 g
sample of ethanol in 1 liter of solution, type =50/(46.07*1) in cell
H2.
4. Data Analysis Tools
Steps:
• Use the “Sort” and “Filter” options to organize data.
• Learn how to use the “PivotTable” feature to summarize
large datasets. Apply conditional formatting to highlight
specific data points.

7
Example-1:
A. Sort and Filter:
• Select the data range A1
• Click on the “Sort & Filter” option in the Home tab. Sort the
data by “Molecular Weight” in ascending order.
• Apply a filter to the header row and filter to show only
compounds with a boiling point greater than 75°C.
B. PivotTable:
• Select the data range A1
• Go to the Insert tab and click on “PivotTable.” Place the
PivotTable in a new worksheet.
• In the PivotTable Field List, drag “Compound” to Rows and
“Boiling Point (°C)” to Values. This will summarize the
boiling points of each compound.
C. Conditional Formatting:
• Select the “Boiling Point (°C)” column (C2)
• Go to the Home tab, click on “Conditional Formatting,” and
choose “Color Scales.”
• Apply a color scale to visualize the boiling points.

1. Conclusions
1. Excel is a versatile tool for data management and analysis.
2. The ability to use formulas and functions can significantly
enhance data processing efficiency.
3. Visualizing data with charts aids in better understanding and
communication of results.
4. Regular practice and exploration of advanced features can
further improve proficiency.
