3D Atomic Orbital Viewer

Spin real s, p and d orbitals in 3-D, fill the energy levels electron by electron, then watch the d orbitals split in an octahedral field to explain complex-ion colour — with a practice mode that marks your configurations.

  • Orbital shapes
  • Electronic configuration
  • d-orbital splitting
  • Complex colour

VSEPR Shape Viewer

Every molecular shape in 3-D — count electron domains and lone pairs to fix the shape, spin real molecules, predict from a formula and compare bond angles.

  • Electron domains
  • Lone pairs
  • Molecular shape
  • Bond angles

Ideal & Real Gas Simulator

Slide p, V, n and T and watch pV = nRT stay balanced in a live particle box — then switch to a real gas and see where ideal behaviour breaks down, and why.

  • Kinetic theory
  • Gas laws
  • pV = nRT
  • Dalton's law
  • Real gases

Gibbs Free Energy & Spontaneity

Slide ΔH, ΔS and T and watch ΔG = ΔH − TΔS trace a straight line — find the temperature where a reaction turns feasible, and see why spontaneous doesn't mean fast.

  • Entropy
  • Sign of ΔS
  • ΔG = ΔH − TΔS
  • Feasibility

Electrolysis Predictor

Set up any electrolytic cell, predict the product at each electrode, then run it to check against an animated cell — and work the Faraday sums, F = 96 500 C mol⁻¹, both ways.

  • Discharge rules
  • Half-equations
  • Q = It, n = Q/F
  • Copper purification
  • Anodising

Boltzmann Distribution

Slide the temperature and activation energy and watch the shaded tail beyond Eₐ grow — see why heating and catalysts speed reactions up, with a live particle box and a theory primer.

  • Activation energy
  • Maxwell–Boltzmann
  • Effect of temperature
  • Catalysis
