Description
This is a kit for modelling covalent bonding. Electrons are represented by spheres, in pairs. The nucleus is represented as a cylinder/circle in the middle of the model. The models can be attached like puzzle pieces, demonstrating the ‘sharing’ of electrons that occurs in a covalent bond. Add a braille and print label to the back to identify the element. Recommend 6 x Hydrogens, 2 x Fluorines, 2 x Chlorines, 2 x Carbon and 1 x Oxygen to make a kit. Does not demonstrate double bonds.
