Virtual Chemistry and Simulations

Chemistry moves from the lab and the classroom to the computer, as working in a virtual chemistry laboratory and viewing simulations provide additional ways of learning chemistry.

Next-Generation Molecular Workbench

Visual, Interactive Simulations for Teaching & Learning Science

  1. For Chemistry Beginners:-

  • PhET Interactive SimulationsPhET, based at the University of Colorado at Boulder, offers over three dozen chemistry-based simulations. Users can search by subject and grade level. Many have been translated into different languages.
  • Chemistry Solutions: Featured SimulationsEach issue of Chemistry Solutions, the periodical of the American Association of Chemistry Teachers, contains a simulation. This page collects and describes simulations from past issues.
  • MERLOT Simulation CollectionThe Multimedia Educational Resource for Learning and Online Teaching (MERLOT) at the California State University has collected descriptions and links to a huge number of simulations, with peer review ratings and comments, and information on their appropriateness for various levels.
  • ChemCollectiveThe ChemCollective, organized by a group from Carnegie Mellon, shares virtual labs, simulations, and molecular level visualizations for chemistry.
  • Mixed ReceptionThis ChemCollective activity might be described as a murder mystery for chemistry students. Students can “interview” suspects by viewing videos, investigate the crime scene using images, and analyze evidence from the crime lab.
  • ChemReaXUsers can model and simulate chemical reactions, focusing on thermodynamics, equilibrium, kinetics, and acid–base titrations. It is designed for Advanced Placement high school and undergraduate students and teachers.
  • Molecular WorkbenchThe Molecular Workbench offers simulations in multiple sciences, along with tools for both teachers and students to create their own simulations. Teachers can also create their own curriculum modules with embedded simulations.
  • Chemistry Experiment Simulations and Conceptual Computer AnimationsIowa State University’s Professor Tom Greenbowe shares many simulations and animations in ten major areas of chemistry, such as gas laws, stoichiometry, kinetics, and more.
  • Virtual Chemistry ExperimentsProfessor David N. Blauch of Davidson College presents several interactive experiment simulations on topics such as equilibrium, kinetics, crystal structure, phase changes, gases, and more.
  • General Chemistry Interactive SimulationsThis page, maintained by chemistry professor William Vining, has simulations that cover a wide range of chemistry concepts, keyed to chapters in a general chemistry text.
  • Electrolyte Solution SimulationA version of an electrolyte solution simulation from John Wiley and Sons is available at the General Chemistry Online! page. It allows the user to select different cations and anions. Data can be logged and downloaded as an Excel spreadsheet.
  • Simulations for ChemistryProfessor Gary L. Bertrand’s (University of Missouri–Rolla) page offers many simulated experiments, such as “The Case of the Five Droppers,” a virtual presentation of five reagents being mixed in different ways to produce various precipitates and gas bubbles, and a coffee cup calorimeter activity.
  • Virtual Laboratory: Ideal Gas LawA virtual lab from the University of Oregon allows one to perform three experiments. The user controls the action of a piston in a pressure chamber filled with an ideal gas, illustrating relationships between temperature, volume, pressure, and molecular weight.

21st Century Chemistry: Challenges and Career Opportunities

                    As Chemistry is the study of the nature, properties and composition of matter, and how these undergo changes, it is referred to as the Central Science. Chemistry is the science about basic structure of substances, i.e what they are made of, how they interact and what role they play in living things. Everything we hear, see, smell, taste and touch involves chemistry and chemicals (matter). Chemistry plays a great role even in the air we breathe, the food we eat and the clothes we wear or imagine anything what we use in everyday life right from early morning to late night before we go to sleep or even while sleeping one may be using mosquito repellent. Chemistry and its innovations surrounds, envelops and touches our lives in all possible forms accepting global changes creating enormous challenges relating to human health ,energy, environmental pollution and scarce natural resources so one can visualise the vari...
