  3. Ball-and-stick model - Wikipedia

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

    In chemistry, the ball-and-stick model is a molecular model of a chemical substance which displays both the three-dimensional position of the atoms and the bonds between them. [1] The atoms are typically represented by spheres , connected by rods which represent the bonds.

  4. Molecular model - Wikipedia

    A problem with rigid bonds and holes is that systems with arbitrary angles could not be built. This can be overcome with flexible bonds, originally helical springs but now usually plastic. This also allows double and triple bonds to be approximated by multiple single bonds. A modern plastic ball and stick model. The molecule shown is proline

    Intermediate organization of covalent bonds: Regarding the organization of covalent bonds, recall that classic molecular solids, as stated above, consist of small, non-polar covalent molecules. The example given, paraffin wax , is a member of a family of hydrocarbon molecules of differing chain lengths, with high-density polyethylene at the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_chemistry

    The key concepts of physical chemistry are the ways in which pure physics is applied to chemical problems. One of the key concepts in classical chemistry is that all chemical compounds can be described as groups of atoms bonded together and chemical reactions can be described as the making and breaking of those bonds. Predicting the properties ...

  7. VSEPR theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VSEPR_theory

    A bond of higher bond order also exerts greater repulsion since the pi bond electrons contribute. [10] For example in isobutylene, (H 3 C) 2 C=CH 2, the H 3 C−C=C angle (124°) is larger than the H 3 C−C−CH 3 angle (111.5°). However, in the carbonate ion, CO 2− 3, all three C−O bonds are equivalent with angles of 120° due to resonance.

    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.
