Chemistry in a Nutshell

Learn to draw boat and chair conformations of cyclohexane. See a ring inversion (ring flip) demo using a molecular model.

Do you want your own molecular model kit? They're extremely helpful for visualizing molecules: https://www.amazon.com/gp/search?ie=UTF8&tag=chemnut-20&linkCode=ur2&linkId=500104837b7650c4574a57342bd88829&camp=1789&creative=9325&index=aps&keywords=molecular model kit
