AP Chemistry Homepage
Everybody is ignorant, only on different subjects. - Will Rogers Are You (really) An AP Chemistry Student? I've had many AP Chemistry teachers respond positively to this particular blog I wrote on AP Chemistry expectations. Before you register for AP Chemistry, you should be fully aware of the course expectations. If you are a student considering signing up for AP Chemistry, do yourself the favor of reading what I've written about your upcoming course selection. Resources for AP Chemistry As always, I make my resources available to any teachers or students who might find them useful. In keeping with the new framework I am indicating on my Reviews page and Powerpoints page if the topic to which a resource relates has been dropped from the curriculum. Some suggestions for success in AP Chemistry - Ignore this at your own peril! I do appreciate hearing from users of this site.

Chemistry Now
The National Science Foundation (NSF) has joined forces with NBC Learn and the National Science Teachers Association (NSTA) to celebrate the International Year of Chemistry by creating "Chemistry Now"--a weekly, online video series that uncovers and explains the science of common, physical objects in our world and the changes they undergo every day. The series also looks at the lives and work of scientists on the frontiers of the 21st century... More. This video explains and illustrates the molecular structure of sodium chloride (NaCl) crystals; the structure and symmetry of crystal lattices; and why one crystalline solid, salt, melts another, ice.
Grant Thompson - "The King of Random"
Call it "Mad Science", or just a "Quest for Discovery". These are some of my experiments, and "Random Weekend Projects" Subscribe! New videos every week! WARNING: In many cases, these projects are dangerous and pose risks of personal, or property damage, injury, and in some cases, death. There are some mind-blowing loopholes in this version of life, that for some reason, haven't been issued a patch. I make weekly videos dedicated to exploring life through all kinds of projects, experiments, and real-world life-hacking. Every project is a completely different adventure, and occasionally you'll see an experiment that probably shouldn't be duplicated at all.
Lecture Demonstration Movie Sheets
NOTE: The set-up and preparation information for most of these demonstrations is available in the Lecture Demonstration Manual by Bodner, Smith, Keys, and Greenbowe. John Wiley and Sons, Inc. ( prints updated editions on an irregular basis. Copies might also be obtained by contacting George Bodner (gmbodner@purdue.edu). Each sheet provides a quicktime video of the demonstration, a brief description of the materials used, pictures of the equipment used, observations, and explanations. Sheets described as "Under Construction" have no movies associated with them yet, but can still be useful for descriptions and reference material in the interim. Please note that the movie sheets contained on this page are only viewable if your browser supports frames! You may also find the following links useful: Questions?
