WEB-PHREEQ is a web-based computer application for aqueous geochemical modeling. WEB-PHREEQ was developed for classroom teaching and for routine calculation of the distribution of chemical species in water. Users can calculate the effects of mixing of waters, adding phases to the solution, or changing the solution's temperature, Eh, or pH. The site features an easy to use interface, frequently asked ...

This site, developed by the Mineralogical Society of America for middle and high school students, introduces the idea of mineral classification and describes the seven major chemical groups into which minerals are divided. The groups include native elements, sulfides, sulfates, silicates, carbonates, oxides and halides. Each group includes a general description, plus a listing of classes within the ...
