This page contains an miscellaneous assortment of links that I have found useful or interesting. It isn't meant to be all-inclusive or in any way systematic and I will add to it from time to time as I come across new sites I like.
| Test yourself | A link to Dr Phil Brown's website where UK GCSE, AS and A level chemistry students will find a wide and growing range of multiple choice, short answer and structured questions. |
| An examiner's view | A link to Rod Beavon's chemistry pages. Rod Beavon is chief examiner for A level chemistry for Edexcel, one of the UK exam boards. A close look at what he has to offer is a must for Edexcel students, but there is a lot of good stuff whatever exam system you are working in. |
| Webelements | Use the Periodic Table to search for all kinds of information about elements and their inorganic compounds. This is one of the key chemistry sites on the web, but is unfortunately getting cluttered with advertising. |
| Dayah Dynamic Periodic Table | Try this Periodic Table if you can't stand WebElements advertising. |
| NIST Chemistry WebBook | A high powered chemistry database of chemical information including spectra. Probably more useful for teachers than for students. |
| Tom Lehrer - The Elements | Every chemistry student should be familiar with this classic song. |
| Animations | A large collection of links to pages of mainly biology and biochemistry animations, but with some chemistry. Some are fairly trivial; some are absolutely excellent. |
| Chalkbored | A fantastic resource of worksheets, handouts, and PowerPoint presentations by an American high school teacher and author, and aimed at eleventh and twelfth-grade chemistry. Explore "chemistry11" and "chemistry12". Can be used by students, but is likely to be more useful to teachers. |
| Environmental Protection Agency | The EPA is the best place to start if you are looking for information on any environmental topic. |
| ICECAP | This is an important site which provides some much-needed balance to the so-called "consensus" about man-made climate change. It consists of articles from scientists and others from all over the world providing an alternative point of view and grows on a daily basis. Keep an eye on this for a few weeks and see what you think. |
| DDT: A Case Study in Scientific Fraud | . . . and following on from the last one - read this pdf file and look for comparisons, not in the facts, but in the way things happened. |
| Molecule of the Month | From Bristol University. Often quirky information about molecules, some common, some not-so-common - a new one every month. |
