Default Image for Resources

Description

Provided by Dave Tandy of Solihull Sixth Form College. This is a zip file (ie needs WinZip to 'unpack') of a folder containing the files needed to support a webpage including interactive molecular representations of various regular and distorted molecular shapes. To interact with these the MDL® Chime plug-in is needed which may be dowloaded from www.mdlchime.com. The folder also has a Word drag and drop e worksheet for this topic.
