Chemistry -
The Central Science, Brown & LeMay
Here you will find the companion web sites for the texts used in our Chemistry I
Honors and Chemistry II courses. There are tutorials and graphical simulations plus
practice tests and exams. For the 8th Edition site you will need the User ID and password given
to you in class. Profile Preferences should not be used. The 9th
Edition site is not password protected, but you may need to use the accelerator
CD that came with your text if you do not have a broadband connection. Results
of practice quizzes, homeworks, or exams taken may be submitted to me by filling
out the Routing Information at the bottom of the Results Reporter. Always
fill in your name, your email address, and my name and email address in the
spaces provided. Select HTML for the "Send as" choice. A List of Schools Using Our Text

Steve Marsden's Chemistry
Resources
This is a fantastic resource for students and
teachers created by an Honors and AP chemistry teacher at Harvard-Westlake in
California. There is a wealth of information, tutorials, labs, demos, and quizzes on
every topic in general chemistry which teachers and students at all levels will find very
useful. There is an interactive periodic table with a description and photograph of
each element. There are lecture notes, problems, worksheets with answers,
self-grading quizzes, chemistry links, as well as, labs and demonstrations. His
lectures and text are well organized, concise, effective, and apply to all of the topics
covered in Chemistry classes at Jesuit. Mr. Marsden is also readily available for
questions.
LUCID
LSU Undergraduate Chemistry Information Depot. This site is provided by the
LSU Chemistry Department as a resource for its students in General Chemistry. There
are a limited number of tutorials of which the most noteworthy is the one on Limiting
Reagents. There is also an archive of all the old tests and exams of the chemistry
professors at LSU. Students in Chemistry Honors and Chemistry II AP courses here at
Jesuit are using the same textbook as LSU’s General Chemistry course and should find great
value in this site.
