Crystal modelling
In this activity, students learn about X-ray crystallography. As well as considering its importance (scientists have used the technique to elucidate the structures of over half a million substances) students use models to learn about – and explain to students in another class – how X-ray crystallography works.
Learning Outcomes
Students understand the importance of X-ray crystallography in elucidating structures.
Students use models to explain the stages of X-ray crystallography.
