Topic 1 (of 2) - Reactions in Aqueous Solution

Movies of binary combinations of ten chemicals commonly found in the general chemistry laboratory are provided. Access to these movies is via a matrix of links wherein you may select any combination of two chemicals. In each reaction, approximately equal amounts of 0.2 M solution are combined.

Matrices like this can support or supplant a general chemistry laboratory experiment involving the identification of binary combinations of these chemicals. Here is an example of a quiz matrix of this sort. (After trying the quiz, the following quiz key might give you clues.)

Fourteen transition metal and "heavy" metal cations are reacted with ammonia and the sodium salts of seven common anions. Again, access to the reactions is provided via another matrix of links. In each reaction, approximately equal amounts of 0.2 M solution are combined. (Mercury ion solutions were less concentrated.)

The chemicals involved in these two sets of reactions are listed. From this list you can link to all reactions involving a particular chemical. This list is alphabetical by name.

Finally, you can navigate sequentially through the compounds. This sequence is alphabetical by formula.

In summary, the links are:

matrix 1 (10x10)

matrix 2 (8x14)

Topic 2 (of 2) - Reactions of the Elements

Reactions of the Elements includes video of the elements reacting with air, water, acids, and base. This video is also used in JCE Software's popular Periodic Table Live! and is included here to allow you greater freedom to use the video in your own presentations under the Chemistry Comes Alive! license. In addition you may purchase an additional license that allows you to place all or a portion of the video on your WWW site. Contact JCE Software for more details.
