Visualizing Molecules

Introduction

This page contains a set of Lewis Dot structures, Hyperchem 3D renderings, and Protein Databank files (*.pdb) for a variety of molecules. These were developed for teaching molecular structure in General Chemistry at Widener University.

The Lewis Dot Structures were created with ChemWindows, or Chemsketch pasted into WinGIF and saved as GIF files.
Space filling models were created with HyperChem, optimized using the MM+ Force Field, pasted into WinGIF and saved as GIF and JPEG files.
The Hyperchem figures are also available in Protein Databank (*.pdb) format. View these files with RasMol or any other viewer.
