What color is used to show a carbon atom?

What color is used to show a nitrogen atom?

What color is used to show an oxygen atom?

What color is used to show a hydrogen?

What color is used to show a sulphur?

What color is used to show a chlorine?

Draw the full structural formula of these molecules. Click and drag to rotate them so you can see better.

See the [Help] tab for the answers as well as what these molecules do.

Note that these are possible answers --- you may have rotated your structural formula and have one that looks different.

The software used in the intro video is called SAMSON (Software for Adaptive Modeling and Simulation Of Nanosystems), and is a kind of molecular modeling tool. You will learn to operate these in the future.

Deduce the molecular formula of these molecules. If you have not completed the previous puzzle I suggest you to do them first.

Be careful of the ordering!

Is there a way to simplify the full structural formula without losing information? 🧐

Yes there is --- there is actually two ways to do that! They are called:

1. Skeletal structural formula (preferred), and
2. Condensed structural formula

Look for them in future episodes.

Convert 100 nm³ to nm³.

If we approximate a water molecule as a sphere, its diameter would be 2.75 Å. What is its volume?

How many water molecules can fit into 1 dm³?

Once again, with feelings: if you get some wrong, it is probably because you skipped steps.

It is quite inconvenient to refer to such large number of objects. Nowhere else in life do we ever need 10²⁰⁺. I wonder if there is a way to simplify that? 🧐
