The following page will seek to help you navigate your way through the world of chemistry. I have tried to provide useful and authoritative resources to aid in your studies. The page will be divided into the following sections: The Basics, General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Chemical Databases and Helpful Research Sites.
I hope you find these useful and as always if you have any comments or questions feel free to contact me at schudnick@brookdalecc.edu
