Chemical structure of latex
- The chemical bond angle between two atoms.
- There are three types of angles:
- Absolute,
- Relative,
- Predefined.
- The Absolute angles give a precise angle (commonly in between 0 to 360, though they can also be negative), and are represented with the syntax <absolute angle>
- Produce an angle relative to the angle of the preceding bond and relative angles require the syntax <relative angle> .
- Predefined angles from 0 to 7 are whole numbers indicating intervals of 45 degrees. The syntax< predefined angle>are produced.
There are 9 different bond types:
- \chemfig{C(-[:0]H)(-[:90]H)(-[:180]H)(-[:270]H)}
- <Coeff>by which the bond’s length will be multiplied represents the factor.
- <Tikz code> regarding the color or style of the bond includes additional options.
The following code can be produced a methane molecule, for instance:
- \chemfig{C(-[:0]H)(-[:90]H)(-[:180]H)(-[:270]H)}
