Summary
|
 |
A combination of Chime/JCAMP-DX VIEWER with
results from common computational chemistry programs can be used
to link theoretical results to experimental spectra on a single
computer screen. The methodology is straightforward, and can be
accomplished on any modern Intel-based computer system with SVGA
graphics and WWW browser.
The result is a combination of experimental data and
computational results with student-manipulated animation. This
combination cannot be achieved with static media, and is a
demonstration of the potential power of the WWW to do things that
cannot be done on paper.
