Investigate the concepts and phenomena presented in the book in a fully interactive way with these rotatable structures and other interactive weblinks. To access the weblinks go to the Chapter List.

Notes on viewing the Weblinks

Some of these Weblinks require Java technology to function. Most computers will have Java preinstalled; however, if the 3D versions don't display you may wish to ensure you have Java installed and that your browser is enabled to run it (most are by default). If not, you can download it from the Java web site.

Many of these Weblinks use the Jmol viewer, and as a result the first time you click on a link there is a short delay while the application is loaded. After that, further links will load more quickly, but please be patient the first time.

These web resources were developed by James Keeler, Stephen Elliott, Christopher Kerr and Steven Smith. The rendering of orbitals and molecular structures is done using Jmol: an open-source Java viewer for chemical structures in 3D www.jmol.org. We acknowledge with thanks the developers of this open-source program.
