• - Explains how some sea animals contain natural polymers which can be used in making everyday items, such as fishing rods and rain coats. Includes sample chemical codes and illustrations.
  
• - Chemistry activities provided through the education division of the American Chemical Society.
  
• - Information, quizzes and activities that provide an introduction to chemistry. Topics include atoms, molecules, gases, liquids, formulas, and the periodic table.
  
• - Offers a tool to conduct molar conversions. A periodic table is also featured for reference, with atomic numbers, molar mass, and element symbol for each element.
  
• - Explains what polymers are, where they're found, and why they're important. From National Geographic.
  
• - Links to a number of site with tutorials, directions, or instruction about chemistry topics including balancing chemical equations, types of reactions, formulas, the mole, stoichiometry, and class information.
  
• - Java introduction to different kinds of radioactive dating, including radiocarbon and isochron dating.
  
• - Chemistry demonstrations performed at the University of Leeds. Movies, photos, and text that explain chemical reactions are available within this site.
  
• - Java and Shockwave programs allow students to conduct virtual experiments.
  
• - Virtual chemistry lab about the pH scale.
  
• - Timeline showing the invention of the thermometer and the history of the different temperature scales.
  
• - Introduces high school students to the challenges and excitement of the molecular science.
  
• - Background of the chemistry of dyes as examples of molecules, and the reaction between cotton and dye as a perfect example of a simple chemical reaction.
  
• - Explains the chemistry behind food, cleaning products, and everyday items like lipstick and paper.
  
• - Canadian site encouraging teachers and students to create chemistry-related online projects in their school. Eligible projects receive funding. Site also contains games, resources and links to chemistry projects that have already been created.
  
• - Online quizzes, notes, and interactive links.
  
• - Some molecules come in mirror-image pairs: a right-handed one and a left-handed one. This Smithsonian site helps kids grades 5 and up learn more about the structure of molecules.
  
• - Tutorials, tests, problems, and tools for learning basic and organic chemistry.
