Chemistry: Virtual Labs
These sites offer virtual lab experiments to illustrate the concepts of chemistry. Topics range from chemical reactions to thermodynamics, and chemical equilibrium. Also included are some molecular simulation applets. An eThemes resource on simple chemistry experiments is also included, which gives some easy to conduct real-world experiments.

Virtlab
This site has several virtual laboratories on stoichiometry, gases, liquids, solutions, and phase equilibria, chemical equilibrium, acids, bases, and ions, kinetics, and thermodynamics. NOTE: To get access to all of the labs a free account is required.
-
Chemistry Java Applets
This site contains links to many chemistry java applets. Some are tutorials, some quizzes, some practice problems, some molecular simulations, and others virtual labs. NOTE: This site contains ads.
-
Late Nite Labs
Here are two demo labs, one on chemical reactions, and another on biology. Additional labs are available for purchase.
-
The Organic Laboratory
Here are nine virtual organic chemistry experiments.
-
Acid-Base Titration
Here is a virtual titration experiment. Students choose the reagents and indicator, and use the titration curve for their experiment to determine the equivalence point.
-
Chemistry Place: Virtual Chemistry Lab
Here are links to virtual labs on electrolysis, acids and bases, precipitates, single replacement reactions, the formation of carbon dioxide, removing carbon dioxide, and thermodynamics.
-
Chem Collective Virtual Lab Simulator
This site contains an interactive tool to virtually perform a wide variety of reactions.
