Switch to GChemPaint application. | I have opened a new GChemPaint application. | |
Let's first draw Ammonia structure. | ||
Click on Current element drop down arrow button. | Click on Current element drop down arrow button. | |
Select 'N from the table. | Select N from the table.
Observe N in the tool box. | |
Click on Add or modify an atom tool>> click on Display area. | Click on Add or modify an atom tool.
Then click on Display area. | |
Point to NH3 | NH3 is seen on the Display area. | |
Press capital H.

Press capital H.
A Submenu with a list of elements starting with H appears. | |
Select H from the list. | Select H from the list. | |
Click on Add a bond or change the multiplicity of the existing one tool. | Click on Add a bond or change the multiplicity of the existing one tool. | |
Click and drag the bonds thrice on the Nitrogen atom. | To draw threee bonds to Nitrogen atom
Click and drag the bonds thrice on Nitrogen atom. | |
Point to the bonds | Orient the three bonds to form a Pyramid like structure. | |
Let's add a pair of un-bound electrons on Nitrogen atom. | ||
Click on Add an electron pair to an atom tool>> click on the Nitrogen atom. | Click on Add an electron pair to an atom tool.
Then click on Nitrogen atom of Ammonia. Observe the changes. | |
Point to the unbound electrons. | Note that Nitrogen of Ammonia has a pair of electrons.
This pair does not take part in bonding. This pair of electrons is lone pair. | |

Let's now draw 'Carbonic acid(H2CO3) and Sulphuric acid(H2SO4) structures on the same window. | ||
Slide Number 7
Structures of Carbonic acid and Sulphuric acid. |
Here is a slide for the structures of Carbonic acid and Sulphuric acid. | |
Let's first draw Carbonic acid structure. | ||
Click on the Current element arrow button>>Select C from the table. | Click on the Current element arrow button.
Select C from the table. | |
Click on Add a bond or change the multiplicity of the existing one tool. | Click on Add a bond or change the multiplicity of the existing one tool. | |
Click on the Display area.
Point to the orientation |
Click on the Display area.
Orient three bonds in such a way that they form an inverted Y. | |
Point to the fourth bond. | Draw fourth bond as a double bond to any one of the bonds. | |
Click on Current element drop down button. | Now click on Current element drop down button. | |
Select O. | Select O. | |
Click on Add or modify an atom tool | Click on Add or modify an atom tool | |
Point to the cursor. | Place the cursor near the bonds. | |
Click on the bond positions. | Click on the three bond positions.
Carbonic acid(H2CO3) structure is drawn. | |
Let's draw the Sulphuric acid structure. | ||
Click on Current element drop down button. | Click on Current element drop down button. | |
Select S | Select S | |
Click on Add or modify an atom tool>>Click on the Display area. | Click on Add or modify an atom tool.
Then click on the Display area. Observe H2S. | |
Click on the Display area>> Press capital O
A Submenu with O and Os opens. |
Press capital O
A Submenu with 2 options O and Os opens. | |
Select O. | Select O. | |
Click on Add or modify an atom tool>> click on Add a bond or change the multiplicity of the existiing one tool. | Click on Add or modify an atom tool.
Then click on Add a bond or change the multiplicity of the existing one tool. | |
In the Property menu>>make the Bond length value to 200 or above. | In the Property menu, increase the Bond length value to 200 or above. | |
Click on H2S to draw the three bonds. | Click on H2S to draw the three bonds of OH to S. | |
Click on S and drag the bond to a side without releasing the mouse. | For the fourth OH bond, first click on S.
Now drag the bond to one side without releasing the mouse button. | |
Point to plus 2 charge near S. | Observe a plus 2 charge near S.
This appears because Sulphur has to satisfy valency of 6. | |
Point to any 2 opposite bonds. | Let's convert the opposite bonds as double bonds. | |
Click on Add a bond or change the multiplicity of the existiing one tool>>click on the existing bonds. | Click on Add a bond or change the multiplicity of the existing one tool.
| |
Point to the structure | Note that the plus 2 charge is no longer visible.
Sulphuric acid structure is complete. | |
Next let's add a local charge on the Carbonic acid and Sulphuric acid structures. | ||
Click on Decrement the charge of an atom tool. | To show local charge, Click on Decrement the charge of an atom tool. | |
Click on two O-H groups. | Click on the two O-H groups of the Carbonic acid.
Observe that Carbonate ion (CO32-) is formed. | |
Click on Decrement the charge of an atom tool. | To show local charge on Sulphuric acid structure.
Click on Decrement the charge of an atom tool. | |
Click on the two opposite O-H groups. | Click on the two opposite O-H groups of Sulphuric acid.
Observe that Sulphate (SO42-) is formed. | |
Slide Number 7
Assignment |
* Draw Nitric acid (HNO3) structure
Your output should look like this. | |
Let me quickly demonstrate how to add a charge to an atom. | ||
Press capital N'.
Point to the Submenu |
Anywhere on the Display area', press capital N.
A Submenu opens in which let's select Na. | |
Click on Add or modify an atom tool>>Click on the Display area. | Click on Add or modify an atom tool and then click on the Display area.
Na atom appears on the Display area. | |
Click on Increment the charge of a atom tool>>Click on Na. | Click on Increment the charge of an atom tool.
Then Click on Na. Observe a positive charge on the Sodium atom. | |
Point to Decrement the charge of an atom tool. | In a similar way, we can add a negative charge to an atom.
This can be done by choosing Decrement the charge of an atom tool. | |
Now let's learn to draw Cyclic molecules.
For this, we will open a new GChemPaint window. | ||
Click on Create a new file icon on the toolbar. | Click on Create a new file icon on the toolbar. | |
Place the window within the recording area. | Let me adjust the window position. | |
Ensure that C i.e. Carbon is selected as the current element.
Also, ensure that the Bond length is 200 or above. | ||
Point to the cycle tools bar in the tool box | There are various cycle tools here that we can use.
For eg -
| |
Point to Add a four membered cycle tool | We will use Add a four membered cycle' to the Display area. | |
Click on Add a four membered cycle tool>>Click on the Display area. | So, click on it.
Then click on the Display area. | |
Let's add atoms to the cycle at the corners. | ||
Right click on any one of the corners>>A Submenu opens. | Right click any one of the corners.
A Submenu opens. | |
Select Atom>>Then click on Display symbol. | Select Atom.
Then click on Display symbol. | |
Show this part fast. | Likewise let's add atoms on all the corners. Obtained structure is Cyclobutane. | |
Let's now convert a monocyclic compoud to bicyclic compoud. | ||
Click on Add a six membered cycle tool>> click on the Display area. | Click on Add a six membered cycle tool.
Then click on the Display area. | |
Click on the cycle bond | Place the cursor on the cycle's bond and click again.
Observe the Bicyclic compound. | |
Click on Save the current file icon on the toolbar. | To save the file,
Click on Save the current file icon on the toolbar. | |
Save as dialog box opens. | Save as dialog box opens. | |
Enter the filename as Editing Molecules>>Click on Save button. | Enter the filename as Editing Molecules
Click on Save button. | |
Let's summarize. | ||
