Chemistry Question Types for LMS & Practice

Explore structure-aware chemistry question types for drawing, Newman projections, spectra, curved arrows, and multi-part reasoning.

For instructors & curriculum authors

Chemistry question types built for structure, mechanisms, and reasoning

ChemIllusion ships a growing library of autograded question types — from multiple-choice and short answer to Ketcher drawing, Newman and chair builders, spectra, curved-arrow mechanisms, and multi-part reasoning episodes. Every type below includes an interactive example you can try without an account, then reuse in question banks and LMS assignments.

New

Build it — answer with a model kit photo

Students photograph a Molymod model and an AI reads the structure. Free demo available for any registered user.

New

Say it — answer by voice

Students name a molecule aloud; the browser turns speech into text, matches it to a structure, and checks the answer automatically. Free demo — no sign-in required.

How these types fit your course

1. Try a demo

Open any example below to see the student workspace, hints, feedback, and accessibility notes for that type.

2. Author in a bank

Copy the pattern into a question bank, attach your own structures and prompts, and export for LMS or reader activities.

3. Deliver in the LMS

Assign through LTI with grade passback, or preview the starter cartridge demo course before you connect your institution.

Accessibility

Turn on Accessible versions above the list to see each question the way a keyboard or screen-reader student gets it: the same question, scored the same way, with text equivalents for every structure, spectrum and diagram. Types that do not have an equivalent accessible version yet are hidden in that view and listed with the reason. These are self-assessed against WCAG 2.1 AA with automated and code review checks; they are not a third-party certification.

Supported question types

Every released chemistry question type ships with a small interactive example.
