We’re excited to release our latest script, which allows you to generate a Lewis dot structure for any covalently-bonded molecule. Most resonance structures and coordination compounds are also supported. Simply follow the steps below:
- If you do not already know the name or chemical formula of the molecule you wish to generate a dot structure for, you can browse the list of molecules at molcalc.org by clicking here.
- Once you are ready to generate the diagram, head over to our JavaScript API, which makes use of WolframAlpha to generate your results.
- The API is accessed by clicking here. Simply follow the instructions there to complete the process.
WOW
Glad I could help!
Carbon dioxide amirite
Nah I prefer dihydrogen monoxide
Doesn’t work – tried entering “ammonia”, NH3, CO2, “carbon dioxide” all fail
Thanks for the tip. For some reason it was on the mobile Wolfram API rather than desktop version, and that threw off the spacing. All of your examples should be working now, at least in Chrome and Firefox.
Super useful, thank you for this
Thanks, I appreciate it! Glad I could help:)
