Molymod molecular geometry, VSEPR kit

Our Price: $35.28

Quantity:

The Molymod VSEPR (Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion) set can be used to make a considerable number of molecules but in particular to make models to display at least 14 VSEPR structures. It is ideal for learning about the basics of molecular shape.

You can make models that represent linear, trigonal planar, tetrahedral, trigonal bipyramidal, and octahedral shapes. Coloured links represent electron-pair bonds (single, double, and triple) and lone-pair electrons.

Atom parts are made of solid coloured plastic spheres.
They are available with from 1 - 6 holes in the usual angular orientations.

Contents of the Molymod molecular models kit for construction of VSEPR shapes

The contents are contained within a sturdy plastic storage box.

Atoms
Enough central atoms are included to make the following models

metallic grey atom, 2 hole, linear, for instance beryllium in BeCl₂
yellow atom, 3 hole, trigonal, for instance sulfur in SO₃
black atom, 4 hole, tetrahedral, for instance carbon in CH₄
yellow atom, 4 hole, tetrahedral, for instance sulfur in SO₃^2-
red atom, 4 hole, tetrahedral, for instance oxygen in H₂O
light green atom, 4 hole, tetrahedral, for instance fluorine in HF
light brown atom, 5 hole, trigonal bipyramidal, for instance phosphorus in PCl₅
yellow atom, 5 hole, trigonal bipyramidal, for instance sulfur in SF₄
green atom, 5 hole, trigonal bipyramidal, for instance chlorine in ClF₃
purple atom, 5 hole, trigonal bipyramidal, for instance xenon in XeF₂
grey atom, 6 hole, octahedral, for instance metal complexes
brown atom, 6 hole, octahedral, for instance bromine in BrF₅
copper atom, 6 hole, octahedral, for instance copper complexes

Bonds

50 medium links (grey, single bonds)
15 medium links (purple, to represent lone pairs)
6 short links (white)

Tool

1 tool (used for disassembling models containing short link bonds)

The Molymod system is the original, unique, dual-scale system of high quality low-cost molecular models. These enormously popular sets are ideal for college use but are also used by scientists all over the world.

Important notice
Molymod atomic and molecular model products are not toys! They are intended for use as a scientific educational aid only, and consequently are not suitable for children less than 10 years of old. These sets contain small parts and should be kept away from small children.
