With the rapid development of computer technology, the role of software tools in chemical education and research is becoming increasingly prominent. This paper takes Mathematica software as an example to explore its application in the visualization of physical chemistry formulas. By using several typical examples, such as the visualization of the van der Waals equation of state, atomic orbitals and electron cloud shapes, and chemical reaction rate equations, this paper provides new perspectives and methods for teaching and research in physical chemistry. Through interactive learning mode, students can not only observe and understand the physical significance behind theories through intuitive graphics but also stimulate their interest, enhancing their initiative and creativity in learning.
