Molecular Model Set, Large
This molecular model set is ideal for chemistry students who are learning about molecules! The kit contains enough "atoms," represented by 2 cm diameter wooden balls, to make large molecules. (Look in a chemistry book for ideas of what molecules to build.)
Ball colors and quantities are 30 black carbon, 30 white hydrogen, 12 red oxygen, 5 orange nitrogen, 18 green halogen, and 5 yellow sulfur. The models are connected with different lengths of flexible metal springs. Ages 13 & up.

Police TrainingReviewed By: Matt Barnett These models are great for teaching the police departments about the molecules that they are looking for. They are just like the ones we used back in college and like them, are very effective at conveying the concepts. Well worth the price.

Just upgraded!Reviewed By: Homeschool Teacher We just received our large molecular model set today. We've used the small set for years, and it has held up really well. Recently, my son begged me to purchase the larger set. He was so excited when it came in the mail. Now he has enough parts to many, more complex molecules. He was very excited this evening to show his father the structure of octane and glucose. If you are purchasing a set for the first time, I highly recommend spending the extra money and getting the large set.

Excellent Set!Reviewed By: Christy Purchased this set for a variety of reasons; for science days in Boy and Girl Scouts, and my children, one of which loves chemistry. I took chemistry in college and I wish we had something this nice. We used marshmallows and toothpicks. The set is quality and has that ooohhh aaahhhh factor in the coolness scale of fun. It seems very sturdy to be "kid proof". This is a great deal for the cost!

love itReviewed By: Julie of KY I love my molecular set. It is very easy to build the molecules ahead of time and use them as I teach young and older students chemistry and chemical reactions.

Great ProductReviewed By: Chem Student I needed a model for my Organic Chem class and this is a great one. I love that the "atoms" are wooden and color coded, and i got the large because i sometimes need to make 2 or 3 models at once, or to make models of large molecules. Great purchase!!

Excellent Set!

Fantastic Kit!! This was really a plus for my 10th grade's Bio Class. It helped him understand and memorize the various molcules in his book. Well made and really durable!!

Good quality set
Reviewed By: Anne Stephany
This is an excellent set for middle school through high school chemistry. The springs easily allow demonstrations of single bonds, double bonds and triple bonds. The holes on the molecules are properly placed to make realistic figures. The set is durable and the molcules do not fall apart easily. I am very happy with this purchase.

Great Set!
This set is great for beginning organic chemistry users. I'm a graduate student now, but i wish i had a set like this to "crystallize" things in grade school. Good quality product.

Good hands-on visual
Reviewed By: Michael Babler
This set is a great way for kids to see what is happening in a molecule. It's easy to use, but the directions lack clear intructions of examples. Otherwise, a good buy!

love it
When I opened the package, I was a little dissapointed. The molecules were smaller than I expected so I was a little dissappointed. But, after building a molecule, I saw the the size was perfect for what I needed. and the springs allow me to make models with two or even three bonds. I recommend this product to everyone who needs to understand structures better.
