  2. Ball-and-stick model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball-and-stick_model

    The motion of water molecules at room temperature and their transient interactions with each other. Ball-and-stick models can be physical artifacts or virtual computer models. The former are usually built from molecular modeling kits, consisting of a number of coil springs or plastic or wood sticks, and a number of plastic balls with pre ...

  3. Lewis structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_structure

    Expressing resonance when drawing Lewis structures may be done either by drawing each of the possible resonance forms and placing double-headed arrows between them or by using dashed lines to represent the partial bonds (although the latter is a good representation of the resonance hybrid which is not, formally speaking, a Lewis structure).

  4. Structural formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_formula

    Skeletal structural formula of Vitamin B 12.Many organic molecules are too complicated to be specified by a molecular formula.. The structural formula of a chemical compound is a graphic representation of the molecular structure (determined by structural chemistry methods), showing how the atoms are connected to one another. [1]

  5. Chemical bonding of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_bonding_of_water

    In other words, if water was formed from two identical O-H bonds and two identical sp 3 lone pairs on the oxygen atom as predicted by valence bond theory, then its photoelectron spectrum (PES) would have two (degenerate) peaks and energy, one for the two O-H bonds and the other for the two sp 3 lone pairs.

  6. VSEPR theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VSEPR_theory

    A central atom is defined in this theory as an atom which is bonded to two or more other atoms, while a terminal atom is bonded to only one other atom. [ 1 ] : 398 For example in the molecule methyl isocyanate (H 3 C-N=C=O), the two carbons and one nitrogen are central atoms, and the three hydrogens and one oxygen are terminal atoms.

    Other previous versions were called Accelrys Draw and SymyxDraw. The program can read and write many file formats, other than its proprietary sketch file format (.skc) and can export PNG files. If SVG files are required, it is recommended that structure diagrams be exported as enhanced metafiles (.emf) which can be read by Inkscape and other ...

  8. Molecular model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_model

    However, most molecules require holes at other angles and specialist companies manufacture kits and bespoke models. Besides tetrahedral, trigonal and octahedral holes, there were all-purpose balls with 24 holes. These models allowed rotation about the single rod bonds, which could be both an advantage (showing molecular flexibility) and a ...

  9. Walsh diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walsh_diagram

    Walsh Diagram of an HAH molecule. Walsh diagrams, often called angular coordinate diagrams or correlation diagrams, are representations of calculated orbital binding energies of a molecule versus a distortion coordinate (bond angles), used for making quick predictions about the geometries of small molecules.
