With atoms and molecules seamlessly floating and interacting with background shots filmed around the world (in the Amazon Rainforest, Hawaii, and other exotic locations) students learn bonding principles for ionic and covalent bonds and rules for drawing Lewis structures. In addition, there is a bonus chapter detailing Lewis structures for over forty organic molecules. Uniquely presented, this DVD has been labeled "a must have" to enhance a student's understanding of bonding theory and how to draw Lewis structures in a logical, step-wise manner.
