Abstract
Atoms are the basic building blocks of all matter in our universe, and molecules are structured
combinations of those atoms. Learn more about atoms and molecules in these tutorials.
Atom Model1 An atom is the smallest particle of an element that contains the chemical properties of
that element. Learn about atoms and their components (protons, neutrons, and electrons) in this program.
Periodic Table2 Examine chemical symbols, atomic masses, electronegativity, electron shell conguration, and more in this printable interactive periodic table of the elements. We have all the elements discovered
thus far, and instructions on how to read the table.
Using The Periodic Table3 Ever wonder how to actually use the periodic table of elements? Get a
detailed overview of the various sections on the periodic table including electron shell conguration, atomic
mass, chemical symbols, electronegativity, and more with this tutorial.
Chemical Symbol Lookup Table4 This lookup displays all the elements in the periodic table, sorted by
symbol. Also included are the element name, atomic mass, atomic number, and electron conguration. This
is a must for anyone learning the periodic table.
Electron Orbitals5 Electron conguration in an atom is organized into orbitals and dierently shaped
subshells. Learn about the s subshell, p subshell, d subshell, and f subshell (and more) in this interactive
tour.
Quantum Numbers6 Quantum numbers describe the state of electrons in an atom. Learn about the
principal quantum number, orbital quantum number, magnetic quantum number, and spin quantum number
in this interactive tutorial.
Chemical Formula Quiz: Inorganic Compounds7 How well do you know the chemical formulas of
inorganic molecules? Bond with this fun quiz ten questions randomly selected from our virtual chemistry
lab!
Chemical Formula Quiz: Organic Compounds8 How well do you know the chemical formulas of organic
molecules? Bond with this fun quiz ten questions randomly selected from our apothecary!
Chemical Symbol Quiz9 See how well you remember the chemical symbols with this quiz. At a buttonclick you get ten more names of elements from the periodic table, each with four choices of chemical symbols
for you to choose. Can you get them all?
