Software Description:
Model ChemLab originated from academic work in computer simulation and software design at McMaster University. Model ChemLab is a unique product incorporating both an interactive simulation and a lab notebook workspace with separate areas for theory, procedures and student observations. Commonly used lab equipment and procedures are used to simulate the steps involved in performing an experiment. Users step-through the actual lab procedure while interacting with animated equipment in a way that is similar to the real lab experience.
ChemLab comes with a range of pre-designed lab experiments for general chemistry at the high school and college level. Users can expand upon the original lab set using ChemLab's LabWizard development tools, thus allowing for curriculum specific lab simulation development by educators. These user designed simulations combine both text based instructions and the simulation into a single distributable file.
ChemLab has two editions: Model ChemLab Pro and Model ChemLab Standard. Model ChemLab Pro includes the Lab Wizard tool which enables instructors to run, edit, and create lab simulations while the Standard edition enables students only to run lab simulations.

Editor's Review:
You own the ChemLab as if you have a virtual laboratory on your home. You can experimentalize at any moment. ChemLab is easy to learn and use. Select a Lab Modules at first, then the experiment can start-up. According to the introduction, procedure and ovservations, you can finish the experiment easily and quickly, you also will learn many knowledges at the same time.
ChemLab provides Periodic Table and RasMol. For students, ChemLab Standard is enough, you can run lab simulations. For instructors, Model ChemLab Pro is a good tool, you can run, edit, and create lab simulations with the the Lab Wizard tool.
