Acetylene Molecular Model w/ Orbitals

Visualize acetylene (C₂H₂) with Indigo octahedral atoms and orbitals. Compare molecules of saturated hydrocarbon and unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbon chains with the Indigo ® VSEPR model kit.

Build a molecular model of acetylene (C₂H₂) using Indigo® octahedral atoms with four black and four white orbitals per atom. This setup allows students to see the linear geometry of the molecule, the triple bond between the carbon atoms, and the sp hybridization of each carbon. Using color-coded orbitals, learners can visualize sigma and pi bond formation and understand electron pair distribution in an unsaturated hydrocarbon.
