Liquids and solutions: computer accessories for a General Chemistry course
Keywords:
simulations, general chemistry, liquids and solutionsAbstract
The learning of liquids and solutions presents difficulties in beginning students of introductory chemistry courses. The utility of simulations to overcome partially these difficulties in the teaching and learning process are discussed and various simulation programs on the subject developed by the author are described. Programs can be used as complementary laboratory classes, problems and theory activities. They are described in detail two of them, to view the scope thereof. Installables copy of some of the programs, with guides, are available without charge to interested readers.
