Molecule Shapes

Molecule Shapes is an interactive application designed to teach molecular geometry through direct manipulation. Users place a central atom and attach atoms with single, double, or triple bonds, observing the resulting 3D shape form immediately. The tool includes pre-loaded models of actual molecules like water, carbon dioxide, and sulfur dioxide for study and comparison. This approach reinforces learning by linking theory to visual, manipulable models, ideal for building a solid foundation in chemistry concepts.
