Toytomics Basic Set Magnetic

The Toytomics system was developed to make chemistry lessons more efficient. The patented Toytomics teaching atom model shows for the first time all valence electrons, free electron pairs, plus and minus charges, electrostatic forces of ions and hydrogen bonds, coordination bonds and ionic bonds. The Toytomics system makes it easy to teach abstract concepts of chemistry, such as chemical equations, electron line formulae, structures, bonds, forces and many other chemical concepts.

Pupils experience these complicated teaching concepts without difficulty by playing with the Toytomics atoms in class. As almost all chemical reactions can be represented with the Toytomics atoms, the models can be used in all year groups

Application examples:

• Air molecules: N2, O2, Ar, CO2, H2O
• Reactions: Oxyhydrogen, fuel cell
• Combustion: carbon, methane
• Electron bar formulae: Multiple bonds, benzene, radicals, ions, free electron pairs
• Organic molecules: hydrocarbons, alcohols, aldehydes
• Carboxylic acids: fatty acids, protolysis, oxonium ion, decarboxylation, oil formation
• Ammonia: basic properties, ammonium ion
• Neutralisation: OH- and H+ to water
• Sugar: isomers, conformers, acetal formation, charcoal process, carbon formation
• Fischer projection: rotamers, "saggered", "eclipsed"
• Hydrogen bonds, solubility: hydrophilic, lipophilic
• CO2: carbonic acid, hydrogen carbonate, carbonate
• Nitrogen oxides: NO, NO2 radical, nitric acid, zwitterion, octet rule, nitrate
• Radical reactions, e.g. with H2O2, HO, NO, NO2, polymerisation, ethylene
• Mesomeric limiting formulae, e.g. CO, ozone, NO2, benzene, bi-radical oxygen
