Interactive - Chemical Bonding and Molecular Shape
Explore how Ions bonds and the different type of bonds that form between atoms.
Activities
You know that great feeling after eating a big meal and becoming full? Or the positive feeling after losing a little extra negative weight? Atoms are like that too! In this interactive, you'll see how atoms with a nearly full outer shell can take on a couple electrons to complete themselves, or shed some electrons if they have a nearly empty shell, and how the charges change.

Two approaching atoms will interact in such a way as to form a bond. But not all bonds are created equal. So what distinguishes one bond fron another bond? And is there a model for predicting what type of bond will form? Explore these questions with our Electronegativity simulation.

We are sure you won't be repulsed by this nifty simulation. See how Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion shapes the molecule they reside in. See real world molecules or build your own!
