PASCO Molecular Model Set

Hands-On Chemistry Exploration

The Molecular Model Set provides an active learning experience for students to learn key ideas about chemistry through the process of physical modeling. It enables learners to build simple molecules such as water and carbon dioxide and complex organic and biochemical compounds, including amino acids. This kit allows students to visually understand the conservation of mass, investigate chemical bonding, predict the polarity of a molecule, and examine mechanisms of reactions. It also allows them to explore intermolecular attractions, steric hindrance, and the nomenclature of chemicals while deepening an understanding of structure and reactivity. This versatile tool enhances classroom engagement by allowing learners to model real-world chemical and biochemical structures as they study chemistry and biochemistry fundamentals.
