Abstract

This program was developed from necessity found in the teaching of molecular geometry to high school chemistry classes. Recent journals and textbooks were consulted in evaluation of the modern emphasis on instruction in molecular geometry at the high school level, and the topic was then developed fully for use in the chemistry course at the Ransom School, serving as a base for other instructional units. A self-teaching concept was employed in this manual in order that the student might proceed at his own pace and according to his own needs. The principal intention was to familiarize the student with the shapes and configurations of various molecules and thereby to give him greater insight into the physical picture of molecular interaction in chemical reaction.
