Chemistry and electricity, electrochemical cells, standard cell potentials, the Nernst equation, batteries and fuel cells, electrolytic cells. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=80789 This site has tutorials covering structure and bonding, inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, and physical chemistry, as well as instrumental analysis. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=82550 In contrast to the common but misleading "entropy is disorganization" line, this tutorial describes entropy as a measure of the spreading and sharing of thermal energy. This concept provides rational, non-mathematical explanations of the effects of temperature change on reaction equilibria and on the colligative properties of solutions. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=80791 This site is kind of hard on the eyes, but contains lots of tutorials covering all types of chemistry. Also, members can access test and exam questions. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=286178 The Website provides tools for calculating continuous symmetry measures online for any molecule given in pdb format, and uses Jmol for three-dimensional visualization. A number, on a scale from zero to 100, describes the distance of a given structure from perfect symmetry; or how much chirality it contains; or to what extent it resembles a polyhedron. The approach to all of these questions is based on the same general principle. That general principle is translated into a computational method for measuring the degree of symmetry point groups, from which several additional specific important measures are derived: Measuring the degree of the basic symmetry elements; Measuring the degree of polyhedral shape content; Measuring the degree of chirality. This website can be used by both researchers, teachers and students, and is part of an undergraduate course for chemistry students at the Open University of Israel. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=325070 Environnement d'apprentissage multimédia en ligne portant sur la rotation et la vibration des molécules et leur lien avec la spectroscopie moléculaire.
