	10 ways to pass a chemistry EXAM (Just as I always say!)
	Gas Law Simulation - Instructions and worksheet given out in Lab for the Boltzman Exp. JAVA plugin required for your browser.	Developed by Dr. John Gelder at Oklahoma State University and Dr. Michael Abraham at University of Oaklahoma. You can explore this activity in S205 or S261.
	Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases-Simulation (Java Applet from UC Berkeley)
Absorption and Emission	Colors of light and Emission - Color (RGB) Colors of light and Emission Colors of light and Absorption	JAVA Applets from UCB. For the Absorption PreLab discussion.
Emission	The Quantum Atom at the Physics 2000 website Schroedinger vs. Bohr	For the Emission PreLab discussion. Emission, Absorption, Spectroscoy and Quantum Mechanics at Colorado State Univ.
	Quantum Mech. Tutorial	I found this at Ohio State. It has audio, and the animations need the Shockwave Plugin. There is also a text-only version.
	Quantum Mech. Overview	From General Chemistry Online.
	Schroedinger's Cat Paradox	A Funny way of thinking about QM...?
Practice Visualization of Shapes	Link to 3D Angles installer - at MolSci Website	Developed by the Molecular Science Projects -with input from students and faculty from CCSF.
Shapes of Molecules	Animated Tutorials For Bonding/Structure - CSU Fullerton and the MolSci Project (Latest Shockwave Plugin required) Ask Dr Su if you have questions about using them.	To use and go along with our lab outline (or Chapters in Zumdahl): Start with Lewis Structures, VSEPR, Visualizing Bonding. Then finally look at Valence Bonds and MOs. There are even Quizzes!

	Shapes of Molecule Resources This link will take you to more Links on this page, below.	M.O. Theory (in Florida)
	MASTERING CHEMISTRY - Not yet assigned. Not available. =(	MCWeb HELP page ( Ask me for help; you can work on these units in S205 and in S8.) See the assignment list and the DAILY SCHEDULE for animations and visualization excercises.
Watch Equilibrium	Particulate Equilibrium	Good simulation to see the mechanism of an equilibrium. Use the replay feature. Developed by MoLE Project - Dr. John Gelder at Oklahoma State University and Dr. Michael Abraham at University of Oaklahoma. Worksheet developed by the FLASH project - we will use this next semester in 101B.
Equilibrium Activity	K and Extent of Reactions; Download this file for Excel ( 300 K file size )	Not assigned at this time. This is an Excel file that uses Macros. It is clean of any macro viruses. Right click to download the file to the desktop. Follow the instructions given on the worksheet (ask me for it). You may work in pairs. Use Excel 97 or Excel 2000. I am not sure if it works with Excel for XP.
