Jmol animations

Addition of cyanide ion to Formaldehyde


Play the animation. Zoom in and take a closer look
Use the Spin buttons below to move the animation.



Play the animation. Manipulate the model to see the the change in shape (hybridisation) at the central carbon. Note how the C-O bond lengthens as the addition occurs.

Control the animation
