Depends on what you mean by calculations. An i7 3770k can perform up to 150~GFLOPS, or Giga-Floating Point Operations per Second. This number looks like this
150,000,000,000~ Floating Point Operations per Second. This is probably the number you're looking for!
As far for Instructions per Second.. This one is more advanced. The same i7 3770k, which is the processor with the highest Instructions per Cycle currently available in the modern CPU market, has an Instructions Per Cycle count of 3.5~
So, per second, this would be the following:
3.5 *3.5 Ghz= 12,250,000,000 Instructions per Second.

∙ 10y agoThis depends on the speed of the processor. For example, a 2GHz processor can do 2 000 000 000 processes per second.
It isn't as simple as this however, since most processors have math co-processors within them. This is a less power processor which concentrates solely on calculations.
Note that I said 2 000 000 000 processes and not calculations. This is because processes do far more than just calculations. They are involved with putting data into memory and retrieving data from memory when required.

Allow me to improve, if I could.
a 2.0GHz Processor does 2,000,000,000 CYCLES per second, not processes. The vast majority of processors do more than 1 "process" or instruction per cycle. For example, the Ivy Bridge i7 processors. They do a whooping 3.5 Instructions per cycle. This means that, if the processor was set to 2.0GHz, it would be capable of the following
3.5IPC*2.0GHz = 7,000,000,000 Instructions per Second
Another more common measurement is the FLOPS measurement, or Floating Point Operations per Second. An i7 3770k is capable of roughly 150GFLOPS, or 150,000,000,000 Floating Point Operations per Second. When somebody asks for a "number of calculations per second" count, this is the number they want typically.
Amazing stuff, isn't it?

What is a GFLOP?
A GFLOP (or gigaflop) is a unit of processing speed for computers and processor chips. A gigaflop is one billion floating-point (numbers that include many decimal points) operations (calculations) a second.
Who build computer?
A computer technician builds computers and works on them for a living. Many computer companies also tend to make computers on assembly lines.
What is the abacus computer?
Yes, it was an early mechanical computer. It is regarded as the first computer, made over 5000 years ago. An abacus is not like a modern computer. People think of a computer as an electronic, programmable device that can store, retrieve, and process data. There were many computing devices prior to the electronic computer that had processing capabilities. They were mechanical devices and are computers. There are many different kinds of computing devices and an abacus is one of them.
Can having to many case fans slow down your computer?
no, but there's no point in putting in too much fans, it will make your computer louder and heavier...
A computer in the Advanced Technology Center computer room on the second floor room number 217 has the computer name ATC 217 7 What fact is true about the computer name?
The only fact about the computer name is that it is located where it was intended to be. The assumed fact is that it is one of many computers in that room, possibly the 7th one to be installed onto the network from that locale.
If a computer does five calculations in a nanosecond then how many calculations does it do in a second?
5 billion
How many calculations can it make per second?
If the question is about the doorknob the answer is "None". And if it not about the doorknob, maybe you should have said what you are referring to!
How many instructions per second are processed by a human brain?
The human brain is the most complex thing in existence (so far). It can make 100 trillion calculations per second. The human brain is the most complex thing in existence (so far). It can make 100 trillion calculations per second.
What did computer mean?
The most basic definition for computer is a machine for performing calculations automatically. There are many, many, types of computers though.
Why computer is used in bank?
There are many reasons for using a computer in banking - but, basically computers handle calculations more quickly and more accurately than humans do.
What was the first computer used for calculation?
The first computer used for calculation is highly dependent on what you consider a computer to be. In many views, the first computer used for calculations was the abacus which dates back to 2400 BC.
How fast should the CPU be?
It depends on the use. Old computers with slow processors can be used for email and web browsing, but for photorealistic 3d gaming or other intensive uses, or if you just want things done fast, 3 ghz could help.
What are the differences between a calculator and a computer?
A computer can perform many functions beyond a calculator, including advanced calculations as well as communication, graphics and other high-level activities.
How much did the IBM cost and how many calculations could it perform per second?
cost 100 million 100 trillion
How many operations per second does a 2.5 ghz processor make?
One gigahertz is equal to one billion ticks per second. A computer with a 2.5 ghz processor can do 2,500,000,000 processes per second.
What does computer literate mean?
To compute, or calculate. That was their original intention anyways, since they were first built for gigantic mathematical equations or scientific research. Of course, now we have many, many more uses for them.
Why computers areused in industry?
Computers can calculate very fast (many millions of calculations per second), and help organize data.
