Space-filling Model




Space-filling models (also known as '''calotte models'''), like Ball-and-stick Model s, belong to the 3D or spatial Molecular Model s, which serve to display the structure of Chemical products and substances or Biomolecules .

of Octane illustrates how the 18 Hydrogen Atom s (white) line the backbone of 8 Carbon atoms (grey)]]
The calotte model is a further development of the ball-and-stick model, with which the configuration of Molecule s can be vividly presented. With it, the Atom s of individual Element s are represented by multicolored spherical sections. Atom size, Bond Angle and Bond Length correspond to the actual relationships.
The result is a clear and (depending on construction materials and execution) flexible model of the molecule. Presentation is also possible using software.
