Today, 7th of Oct, KOS class, we all were introduced to a new software, Chemsketch. I thought it's quite interesting to sketch and draw chemical structures,diagram, apparatus etc., using computer.
We were given tasks to complete sketching and drawing 5 things: energy of reaction diagram, p-orbital, d-orbital,pi-orbital,vacuum distillation apparatus, two-chain DNA strand,lipids and micelles.
We learnt to draw all of them by referring to the manual book that have been given to us.
Although we have referred to the notes, it's kind of difficult to draw the objects, since we were new to this software. Somehow, we have learnt many things, such as how to make an energy diagram and two-chain DNA strand by using polyline. We also learnt how to draw different types of orbitals by using polygon(p-orbital and d-orbital) and ellipse(pi-orbital). We drew apparatus using lab kits templates and arranged them properly according to its actual arrangement in experiment. Then, we learnt how to draw lipids and micelles using ellipse and polyline, convert it to curve then smoothen it.

After we finished our sketch, we must email our work to the lecture and post it at our blog.
