Abstract: Combining the fundamental aspects of teaching activities in chemistry and emphasizing safety, environmental friendliness, and visualization, this paper explores potential technical features and applications of virtual reality technology in experimental teaching and scientific research. In contrast to simulations, virtual reality technology, with its interactive and immersive experiences, can vividly depict the procedural aspects of chemical experimental education and training.

Key words: Chemistry experimental education, Virtual reality, Augmented reality
