Organic Chemistry, Part 14, Form - Aldehydes - Second Part with a Video

Greetings,

This post provides a better look at the aldehyde structure.  A video showing a rotating 3-D Ball-and-Stick model has been prepared.


You may have noticed what appears to be a single covalent bond between the carbon and oxygen atoms.  That bond is actual double-covalent.

The molecular structure was drawn using "Avogadro": Individual frames were captured by taking frequent snapshots of the rotating model.  "Stop-and-Go" was used to freeze the frames.

"GIMP" was used to open the individual frames as layers in one file.  Further processing (Cropping and conversion to the ".gif" format) was also done using "GIMP".

Finally, "WeVideo" was used to combine tracks and publish as an mp4 file.

I hope you enjoyed the video!

Thank you for reading!
