Simulations and Virtual Labs
Animations
These Animations illustrate many of the topics in an introductory chemistry course.
Learn MoreChemCollective
The ChemCollective offers virtual labs, learning activities, and tutorials for chemistry. Teachers utilize it for pre-labs, alternative homework, and in-class tasks. Students enhance understanding through virtual labs and simulations.
Learn MoreChemReaX
ChemReaX is a web app for modeling and simulating basic chemical reactions. The software is intended for chemistry students and their teachers at the undergraduate and high school (AP/IB) levels.
Learn MoreConcord Consortium
The Concord Consortium provides computational models, based on scientific first principles, to make the world’s invisible phenomena visible and explorable.
Learn MoreGasSim
GasSim is designed to serve as a virtual lab that students can use to experiment with and develop a deeper understanding of ideal and real gas laws. Students can also compare the ideal gas behavior to two real gas models that are more realistic.
Learn MoreGeneral/Introductory Chemistry: Simulations
General/Introductory Chemistry: Simulations is maintained by chemistry professor William Vining and has simulations that cover a wide range of chemistry concepts.
Learn MorePhET
At PhET Teachers have access to simulation-specific tips and video primers, resources for teaching with simulations, and activities shared by our teacher community.
