Molecular Model Set -Zinc Sulphide, PS / PE

Molecular Model Set Zinc Sulphide

ELEMENTS :
METAL (IV) – 22
SULPHUR (IV) – 23

A Molecular Model Set for Zinc Sulphide (ZnS) is designed to represent the crystal lattice structure of ZnS in its different polymorphic forms, such as zinc blende (sphalerite) or wurtzite.

Features & Specifications:

• Structure Type:
  • Zinc Blende (Cubic) Structure – Face-centered cubic (FCC) arrangement.
  • Wurtzite (Hexagonal) Structure – Hexagonal close-packed (HCP) arrangement.
• Number of Atoms:
  • Zinc (Zn) atoms – Typically one color (e.g., gray or silver).
  • Sulfur (S) atoms – Contrasting color (e.g., yellow).
• Material: Durable polymer/plastic for long-term use.
• Bonding:
  • Interlocking connectors or rods represent ionic bonds between Zn and S.
  • Tetrahedral coordination (each Zn surrounded by 4 S atoms and vice versa).
• Applications:
  • Educational tool for chemistry, physics, and crystallography studies.
  • Demonstrates ionic bonding, coordination number, and polymorphism in ZnS.
