Bohr Hydrogen Atom Emission Series William F. Coleman In this Excel spreadsheet students use interactive arrows to explore various series in the hydrogen spectrum. The arrows change the final quantum state of the series. A second tab opens a sheet that allows exploration of the spectra of other one-electron species, by varying the nuclear charge. The nuclear charge is entered and the arrows again control the final state of the spectral series.

Photoelectric Effect William F. Coleman This is a series of simulations of aspects of the photoelectric effect. There is an animation of the experiment with four choices of incident radiation - low and high intensity "red", to represent low energy light and low and high intensity "blue" to represent higher energy light. Electron production is animated and there is an ammeter to simulate current flow. Additional simulations show the effect of light frequency and intensity. There is a link to a spreadsheet that allows students to choose a sample from among five metals. The spreadsheet includes several questions to be answered after working through the materials.

Restricted Hartree-Fock SCF Calculations Using Microsoft Excel Mark A. Freitag, Cortney A. Boots, Taylor R. Page Courses in computational chemistry are increasingly common at the undergraduate level. Excellent user-friendly programs, which make the execution of ab initio calculations quite simple, are available. However, there is a danger that the underlying SCF procedure (usually coupled with contracted Gaussian atomic orbital basis sets) can become a ?black box? for the student. This Microsoft Excel spreadsheet contains all the essential elements of far more complicated ab initio calculations, but on the simplest possible molecular system.

3D NormalModes Shockwave; A Web Application for Interactive Visualization and Three Dimensional Perc Nickolas D. Charistos, C. A. Tsipis, Michael P. Sigalas 3D Normal Modes is a Web application for interactive visualization and three-dimensional perception of the normal modes of molecular vibration, suitable for undergraduate students in chemistry. The application uses the Macromedia Shockwave plug-in and has been designed and developed especially for the Web. It has a simple graphical user interface and requires a download of only 120 KB, allowing it to be used even with low bandwidth Internet connections. Its performance is comparable to a desktop application.

The ChemPages Laboratory Resources are a set of web pages that include text, images, video, and self check questions. The topics included are those that are commonly encountered in the first-year chemistry laboratory. They have been put together for use as both a pre-laboratory preparation tool and an in-laboratory reference source.

Spectrometer, Spectronic 20 (ChemPages Lab) John W. Moore, Jerrold J. Jacobsen, Joe L. March Spectrometer, Spectronic 20?: this is a resource in the collection "ChemPages Laboratory Resources". The Spectronic 20? is used to measure the absorbance (or transmittance) of solutions. A Spectronic 20? is capable of measuring % transmittance and absorbance over the range of 340 to 950 nm (the range 600 to 950 nm requires a special infrared filter and a different lamp). The ChemPages Laboratory Resources are a set of web pages that include text, images, video, and self check questions.

Mechanisms That Interchange Axial and Equatorial Atoms in Fluxional Processes Marion E. Cass, Henry S.

Teaching this mechanism presents particular pedagogic problems due to both its dynamic and three dimensional character. The approach taken here illustrates these processes using interactive animations embedded in a Web page and overcomes many limitations of a printed page.
