  Animation: Net Ionic Equations Animation Mark as Favorite (67 Favorites)

  This animation explores what happens in a precipitate reaction on the particulate level. Students will see why writing a net ionic equation accurately represents what happens in these scenarios. An example of diluting a soluble solid, mixing two aqueous reactants that yield aqueous products, and mixing two aqueous reactants that yield a precipitate are part of this animation. **This video has no audio**

  Animation: Limiting Reactant Animation Mark as Favorite (57 Favorites)

  This animation explores what happens in a limiting reactant problem on the particulate level. Assembling a bike is used as an analogy to introduce the concept of limiting reactant, and then the balanced equation of the combustion of methane is used in four quantitative examples to show what it means for a chemical to be a limiting reactant. The concept of the conservation of mass is also demonstrated by calculating masses from the mole quantities of the reactants and products. **This video has no audio**

  Simulation: Galvanic/Voltaic Cells Mark as Favorite (85 Favorites)

  In this simulation, students select different metals and aqueous solutions to build a galvanic/voltaic cell that generates electrical energy and observe the corresponding oxidation and reduction half reactions.

• 

  Simulation: Galvanic/Voltaic Cells 2 Mark as Favorite (47 Favorites)

  In this simulation, students can create a variety of standard and non-standard condition galvanic/voltaic cells. Students will choose the metal and solution for each half cell, as well as the concentration of those solutions. They can build concentration cells and other non-standard cells, record the cell potential from the voltmeter, and observe the corresponding oxidation and reduction half reactions.

• 

  Simulation: Comparing Attractive Forces Mark as Favorite (49 Favorites)

  In the November 2014 issue, students explore the different attractive foreces between pairs of molecules by dragging the "star" image. In the accompanying activity, students investigate different types of intermolecular forces (London dispersion and dipole-dipole). In the analysis that follows the investigation, they relate IMFs (including hydrogen bonding) to physical properties (boiling point and solubility).

• 

  Video: Catalytic Converters Video Mark as Favorite (32 Favorites)

  This video investigates the role of a catalytic converter and its corresponding chemical reactions within a vehicle. Students will learn about both oxidation and reduction reactions and how they, in combination with a catalyst, can impact the molecules released in a car’s exhaust.

• 

  Video: The Internal Combustion Engine Video Mark as Favorite (29 Favorites)

  This video investigates both the mechanical and the chemical processes used in the internal combustion engine, as well as the history and evolution of the combustion engine.

• 

  Video: Acid & Base Guys Video Mark as Favorite (63 Favorites)

  This video tells the story of how the definition of acids and bases has evolved from Lavoisier, to Arrhenius, Bronsted-Lowry, and Lewis.
