- Gibbs Models
- Thermodynamics is rich and complex, in part, because its basic functions depend on several variables. To visualize those functions, we need graphs in three, four, and even higher dimensions. Such graphs are nontrivial to create, but Professor K. R. Jolls and his colleagues have devoted considerable effort to making three-dimensional, thermodynamic plots accessible and appealing.

- Chemical Reaction Stoichiometry
- Balancing chemical reactions may not be as easy as you think. For a thorough introduction, explore this site by Professors W. R. Smith and R. W. Missen.

- Atom in a Box
- The quantum mechanical problem for the isolated hydrogen atom can be solved analytically, producing a complete, three-dimensional description of all atomic orbitals. The problem then is to present the orbitals so they can be visualized. This site gives sample results from a simulation program that provides up to 140 orbitals in animated 3D. The code is available as shareware, but it runs only on PowerPC Macs.
