Three Dimensional Molecule Viewer

By Kevin Neelands

Apple App Store: 3.0 stars

 

Our Rating: 3.2 stars

DESCRIPTION

This app helps students understand the true structure of some common molecules by displaying anaglyphic wire frame representations of them. Molecules are displayed in a standard 2D view but when you select the 3D view they seemingly pop out of the screen. This is an entertaining novely app, but also a very instructional and educational one for anyone learning or just interested in chemistry.

PROS

1. Helpful in visualizing 2D and 3D structures.

TAGS
CONS

1. Molecule does not seem to pop out as stated in description.

2. Limited molecules given.

3. Unable to rotate or move the molecule. (Only has “spin” function)

4. Require 3D glasses to view 3D simulations.
