Book Reviews of Prentice Hall Molecular Model Set For Organic Chemistry
Book Review: Best Kit I know of
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this kit to get me through my organic chemistry class at the university, and it more than does the job. The model kits that my school provides are the spring type bonds with wooden molecules, not bad at all but this kit has several advantages the others.
1) Bonds are easily rotated giving you all the different perspectives in the same molecule
2) Molecules such as cyclohexanes "flip" like a dream allowing you to observe axial and equatorial atomic positions clearly
3) The space saving bonds give you another option to look at the molecule without all the clutter of springy bonds
- Overall this kit is perfect for pre-med level organic chemistry (not too sure about more advanced classes that Chemistry majors may take) It has planty of atoms and bonds and holds shape extremely well.
- I am constantly being asked where I got it and classmates are always coming to me to observe my models since they are just more clear with this kit.
- One of my favorite things to do is put four different color atoms on a carbon using the space saver bonds and bring it to the exams so I can check for chirality by lining up atoms, I find this to be super effective and havent missed a chirality question yet! (Also helps out a ton with R and S enantiomers if you make two)
Sure it may cost a few bucks more than something else, but it could help you make the grade.
And did I mention, its just fun!
Summary of Prentice Hall Molecular Model Set For Organic Chemistry
This kit enables users to build virtually all simple molecules encountered in organic chemistry. Includes space-filling models that simulate the true shape of saturated compounds. Provides open models that form realistic single, double, and triple bonds ? even strained rings. Allows smooth rotation of the bonds to make conformational analysis easy. Contains enough components to create several models at once. The components are precision-tooled from quality plastics, are virtually indestructible, and come in a sturdy plastic case for easy storage. Provides a useful Instruction Book ? with photos, diagrams, and concise discussions of chemical principles.
