Molymod MMS-008 Organic Chemistry Molecular Model, Student Set (50 atom parts)

Es perfecto, las piezas pueden conectarse mediante enlaces cortos, largos y largos flexibles que permiten dobles y triples enlaces. Fundamental para ilustrar la geometría de pequeñas moléculas orgánicas. Seguramente compraré más para mis clases particulares.

The product came as it should and on time but my biggest gripe about it was that the box was heavily dented.

Dieser Baukasten ist super für die bessere Verstellung des räumlichen Baus von Molekülen. Man kann leider nur etwa 4 etwas größere Moleküle gleichzeitig gebaut haben. Die Qualität ist auf jeden Fall super.

Excelente sistema de moléculas orgánicas. Sumamente fieles a la geometría atómica. El único problema que le veo es que son pocos átomos, de forma que no pasas de cadenas cortas de carbono o ciclos pequeños. Para clases básicas de química orgánica esta excelente, así como para explicar la geometría del carbono. Pero para armar moléculas más grandes, ya se requieren por lo menos dos kits.

We bought this as an extension to my daughter's existing set : she enjoyed using that for GCSE chemistry but was a bit frustrated at the size limits of organic molecules which she could make with her existing Molymod set. Now she is doing AS Chemistry and Biology, the extra carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, sulphur and oxygen 'atoms' in this set come in very handy and the proportions appear about right. Other reviewers have commented that models can be hard to dismantle, but we've found that the little removal tools is very useful. If this is your only set, it might be a trifle limiting - there are only 12 carbons. And if you're of a biochemical / molecular biology bent, the fact that there's only one phosphorus atom is going to be a bit annoying, given the central role of phosphates in cell biology. Those are the only negatives : it's a well made set that will help students grasp important concepts like isomerism, conformation of sugars, bond strain in cycloalkanes and carbon rings. And as we've found, the sets are rather more-ish as your molecular modelling ambitions increase.
