REFERENCE MATERIALS
* Vermont MSDS: comprehensive searchable index of Material Safety Data Sheets
* Chemical and other Safety Information: MSDS information plus additional toxicity and safety information maintained by Oxford University's Physical and Theoretical Chemistry Lab
* NIST Chemistry WebBook: access to the full array of thermochemical and spectral data compiled by the National Institute of Standards and Technology; search for data on specific compounds by name, chemical formula, CAS number, molecular weight, or selected ion energetics and spectral properties.
PERIODIC TABLES
* WebElements: interactive periodic table which provides data on not only the electronic and physical properties of each element but also its common uses, biological and geological applications.
* Comic Book Periodic Table: click on an element to see a list of comic book pages involving that element.
* The Visual Elements Periodic Table: a visual interpretation of the table of elements from chemsoc.
PLUG-INS
* Adobe Acrobat Reader: necessary for downloading and viewing .pdf files
* Chime: software which makes it possible to render and view "live" 2D and 3D chemical structures within a Web page
* RasMol: another type of molecular visualization freeware
* Shockwave: necessary for some interactive tutorials on the web
CAREER OPPORTUNITIES
* Careers for Chemistry Graduates: site maintained by Harry E. Pence, Professor of Chemistry, SUNY Oneonta; contains links to information on various fields ranging from biochemistry to forensics to patent law.
* Chemjobs.net: job vacancy site for chemists, biochemists, pharmaceutical scientists and chemical engineers, maintained by Emedia Science Ltd.
* Chemistry and Industry Magazine: this site provides current information on job opportunities in business and industry.
* Washington and Lee University's Career Development and Placement Office
MEGA SITES
* About.com Chemistry: well-organized collection of links grouped by subject
* Umea University Analytical Chemistry: comprehensive list of chemistry teaching resources available on the internet; designed for teachers and professors, but useful for students as well; excellent links to history of chemistry, general science, and on-line tutorial sites...
