VSEPRplex (pronounced "ves-per-plex") is an interactive chemistry package that helps students visualize and understand molecular geometry. While building and exploring their own 3-D structures, students encounter the shapes and properties of small covalent molecules. VSEPRplex was designed for use in senior high school and college chemistry courses.

VSEPRplex is a 3-D molecular modeling set that allows students to build their own molecules, atom by atom. This software takes an interactive, visual approach to chemistry. VSEPRplex will help students develop a deeper intuition for the shapes of small covalent molecules. Students will gain a better understanding of the chemistry behind the images. By building and exploring their own molecules with VSEPRplex, students encounter the core concepts in VSEPR theory.

Here are some key features of "VSEPRplex":
Core Topics
Valence electrons and the octet rule
Covalent bonds and Lewis structures
