Ball And Stick Model Lab

Molecular compounds and lewis structures building 3d models use the ball and stick kits provided in class to build 3d models of the molecules after you have drawn the lewis structures.

Ball and stick model lab. In chemistry the ball and stick model is a molecular model of a chemical substance which is to display both the three dimensional position of the atoms and the bonds between them. You will be making covalent bonds by joining various colored balls representing different atoms with various sticks representing single double or triple bonds that hold the balls together. View in 720p for best quality. Ball stick use black 4 holes carbon tetrahedral black 3 holes carbon trigonal planar.

The atoms are typically represented by spheres connected by rods which represent the bonds. Ball and stick model observe the conformers and isomers use free software to sketch the chemical structures reference expt chemsketch avogadro. In this exercise you will build several covalent molecules and predict each molecule s polarity on the basis of its. Ball stick models are delicate hard to replace and prone to collecting dust so they should be handled with care.

Most of the heavy atoms in this exercise c n o f s cl sb xe and i obey the octet rule. Buy molecular model kit and software first of its kind educational molecule app bundled with 59 atom chemistry modeling set classroom students laboratory scientists home mc 001. Lab you will use ball and stick models to construct molecules that are important to living cells. Ball and stick models are often used to demonstrate molecular shape.

The balls are color coded as shown in table 2. This lab will work for whatever ball and stick models your department happens.
