Overview:
This animation simulates molecular vibrations.
You may visualize animations for the vibration modes of a large number of molecules of various shapes:
- tetrahedral, octahedral, linear, square-planar, etc.
Suggestions:
You may:
- Study the 3D structures of many molecules
- Analyse the vibration modes in detail
- Discuss how the calculations and the animations can be made
- Discuss applications of vibrational spectroscopy (like isotopic fractionations, infrared absorption and the mechanisms and kinetics of chemical reactions)
