Understanding the basic concepts of chemistry is very important for the students of secondary school level and university level. The Computer Assisted Teaching and Learning (CATL) methods are marked by the usage of computers in teaching and learning processes. Usage of WORD, EXCEL, POWERPOINT, ACCESS, PHOTOSHOP etc., as well as the use of specialized packages such as CHEMDRAW, SCIFINDER etc., can be worth mentioning. The role of internet in feeding the thirst of students is comparably far better than the classroom teaching. By the use of CATL methods, students can acquire high quality of mental models.
