The Internet has attracted attention as a media for interactive education system for distance- and self-learning systems. Here we report an example of the Flash animations which are available in teaching and learning introductory inorganic chemistry in the university. Flash animation has advantages of being (1) small file size, (2) easy to create, and (3) independent of the platform. In learning inorganic chemistry, it is very important to understand (1) the molecular and crystal structures, and (2) electronic state of non-classical molecules and transition metal complexes, for which graphics and animation are quite effective. Animations featuring (1) diborane B2H6, (2) ion crystal structure, and (3) ligand field stabilization energy are presented.
