I stumbled upon an interesting chemistry site which is useful for chemical engineering students and practicing chemical engineers. General Chemistry Online is put together by Fred Senese at Frostburg State University . The site excels in several areas. The first is a Common Compound Library . In it, users enter the name of compound and a search engine retrieves data about the molecule, which includes links to PubChem , Webbook and MSDS info. Chime structures and spectra are included where relevant. Second is a section entitled Exam Survival Guide . It provides practice exams and "ten ways to pass your next exam" that will be popular with students (sometimes chemical engineering students have some problem understanding chemistry!). A glossary covers many of the terms and can be sorted by topic. Last, a set of Construction Kits help students to "build" chemical equations, convert units, and construct ionic compounds. Clearly a labour of love, General Chemistry Online has been around long enough to be called a classic of web education. I highly recommend this informative and resourceful website. Check it out.
