Pick a chiral compound (anything with at least one chiral carbon). Remember a chiral molecule must have at least one carbon bonded to four unique groups.
Build three dimensional models of a pair of enantiomers (R and S).
Materials you use are up to you. Examples: candy, packing Styrofoam, toothpicks, Playdough, straws, modeling clay and of course other art supplies.
you must submit photos of your models and have all atoms labeled, if it is not possible to label atoms then you must include a legend giving the color/name for each of the four unique groups.
Chiral molecules chosen and IUPAC names are included. (5 )
Models appear to be structurally sound and represent the correct 3-D geometry and bond angles(5)
Models are creative, colorful, using practical everyday items or craft supplies. (5)
Models are enantiomers. Labeling for R and S is done correctly. (5)
Photos Submitted include top and side view for each molecule so I can judge the bond angles, and two images showing the molecules are mirror images and non superimposable.
