MM-003 Chemistry Molecular Student Set

$24.95

Duluth Labs Set will bring to life concepts such as chirality, conformations and isomers to help you relate the physical and chemical properties of compounds to their molecular structures.

Get hands on experience with three dimensional topics covered in Organic and General Chemistry courses such as Lewis structures, Newman projections and wedge-dash diagrams. The versatile molecular set accelerates memorization by allowing you to visually create common functional groups such as ketones, aldehydes, alcohols, thiols, amines, aromatics and most other families of organic compounds.

Extra Information

Overview

Chemistry can often be a difficult subject primarily because it is hard to visualize complicated molecules in 3D space. We have designed molecular model kits to aid you in visually displaying common functional groups, accurate bond angles, bonding, ring structures and much more!

Durability, Flexibility, and Ease of Use

Our MM-003 was designed to be bright, attractive and very similar in color to the elements of the periodic table. Our bonds are semi-flexible which allows for conformations but durable enough for lifetime chemists. Say no to sore fingers by using our molecular tool included in each set to assist with ease of disassembling!

Additional Features

Cyclohexane Conformations

Many chemistry students struggle to understand the conformational changes that molecules undergo. A common molecule is cyclohexane which can flip its ring to rotate between different conformations. Using a 3-dimensional molecular model can help to picture a cyclohexane molecule in its chair, boat, axial and equatorial positions/conformations. Our imagination is powerful but hands-on engagement activates another level of memory retention!
