Synopsis

This realistic, instructional software assists users in connecting the theory learned in the classroom with the hands-on experience acquired in the laboratory. The virtual lab teaches them the technical skills needed to conduct actual chemistry experiments. >Simulated laboratories emphasize cognitive skill building, and Web Connectivity Options allows learners to receive and give assignments through the web. For students of Organic Chemistry.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

Virtual ChemLab: Organic Chemistry Laboratories is a collection of realistic simulations of organic synthesis and organic qualitative analysis. In these laboratories, students are put into a virtual environment where they are free to make the choices and decisions that they would confront in an actual instructional laboratory setting and, in turn, experience the resulting consequences.

The general features of the organic simulation include the ability to synthesize products; workup reaction mixtures and perform extractions; use nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), infrared spectroscopy (IRS, and thin-layer chromatography (TLC) as analytical tools; purify products by distillation or recrystallization; and perform qualitative analysis experiments on unknowns using functional group tests with actual video depicting the results of the tests. The simulation allows for over 1,000,000 outcomes for synthesis experiments and can assign over 300 different qualitative analysis unknowns.
