The BBC has developed its site to the point where it's a really useful learning resource; check it out. You may find the message board interesting / useful / amusing. For a vast database of information about the elements, visit the chemi-cool site. Just click on an element for data. WebElements is a site which uses a periodic table to give access to data in a similar way. For general interest surfing, try the coolsci links. For a bit on environmental chemistry, look at the latest research about the ozone hole. To keep up to date, you could try the  Keen on Batman or other comic book characters? Well, you can pick up Chemistry though comics, apparently. Try the Oxygen Page link. For those answers to questions you have never dreamed of asking, visit the Mad Scientist.

A splendid introductory site is chem4kids. This is by far the best teaching site with questions, explanations and data. You have to try to ignore all the americanisms; they neither spell nor pronounce "aluminium" correctly!  Try the Jefferson Lab for short notes about the elements; the link is to aluminium. For homework, try chemed. I haven't yet explored the funbrain site properly, but there seems to be spot on teaching and tests on formulae and equations. There are three useful websites with bright and interesting tables and diagrams on the Rock Cycle and the various rock groups. 1 2 3

A vast library of Chemistry Data and links can be found at the chemdex site; however, lots of the info is geared towards university and research. Still, there’s some very good animations for sixth form reaction mechanisms. Try this one for SN1 and SN2 mechanisms; a zip file to download. More are available through molecules. For more advanced students interested in the structure of biological molecules, rotating 3D images are available through Razmol. If you need to know the structure of a suitable poison before you use it, find it through the Indiana University site. Loads of teaching notes from one of the top schools in the country. It might be somewhat advanced, but you can always look at the pictures on the knowledge by design site! Students interested in Chemical Engineering might like to try the links through The Newcastle upon Tyne University website.
