About This Item
Description
The molymod® Ice Crystal Model Set is an excellent hands-on resource for studying the molecular structure of water as it freezes. The model is made of durable, colored plastic parts and consists of 26 water molecule units arranged in 2 layers of 13 each. The model precisely illustrates how the volume of water expands as it freezes, and distinguishes hydrogen bonds with purple links and covalent bonds with short white links to reinforce polarity alignment. It has 26 red oxygen atom centers, representing sp3 hybridized orbitals and the angular arrangement of atoms in each water molecule. This scientific model is great for classroom or small group instruction and can be assembled and disassembled to show the processes of freezing and melting.Features
