This is a Sudoku type exercise that focuses on periodic trends and elemental symbols. It does require access to an interactive periodic table. It is difficult!


This exercises aims to teach a number of chemical and physical properties for approximately 98 elements, to teach a range of periodic trends and to advance a students use of Excel and its logic commands.


In this exercise, students will learn how to use a modeling program to build a lattice structure. It will teach students how to construct a sheeted material such as graphite, how to construct an intercalated compound, how to construct a fullerene (buckyball, C60) and a aza-fullerene (C48N12), and how to construct a carbon nanotube from chains of carbon molecules. It aims to improve a student’s ability to visualize 3D structures.


In this exercise students will review a number of fundamental concepts including molecular geometry, electron configurations, magnetism, metal-ligand interactions, and material science. Students will use molecular modelling software to build, visualize and study a cutting edge material (single molecule magnet).


In this exercise students will study chemical forces such as covalent bonds, ionic bonds, ion-dipole interactions and hydrogen bonds.


In this exercise students will learn about the reactions between a strong base and weak, as well as a weak base and a strong acid. Students will simulate a titration curve that would be obtained if a strong acid and a weak base were reacted, and they will advance their knowledge of using a spreadsheet in chemistry related exercises.
