Chemistry Software and Simulations

  1. UCI Collection of Applets - This site contains a set of interactive simulations for Chemical Kinetics, Second law of Thermodynamics, Particle in a Box etc. Very neat and very cool! But needs a JAVA aware browser.
  2. Interactive Molecular Graphics - A graphical WWW service for interactive browsing of crystal and molecular structure of macromolecules, But slightly advanced you can try out the demos they have at the site if you would like to see molecular structurer of a molecule of your interest you have to provide your own .pdb file
  3. Interactive Molecular Editor (Applet) Author's description - Lets you build the chemical structures using drag-and-drop interface. Good GUI and multi-windowed interface.
  4. The Editor is part of chemical database project and soon will let you to use it for chemical structures database search.
  5. Acid-Base Equilibrium Calculator - This is a chemistry utility you can use to plot acid-base fractional composition diagrams and titration curves, and calculate pH values and species compositions of acid-base solutions. Only available for Windows.
  6. Catalog of Chemistry Education Software (all platforms) - CTI Centre
  7. ChemCAI: Instructional Software for Chemistry - While this site has been around for some time it deserves another look since the reources have substantially increased. The site contains several lists of software sources, demonstration materials and other resources of interest to Chemistry teachers and course designers.
