Molecular Structure of a Coordination Complex - Visual Representation #3789878 (License: Personal Use)

This image depicts a ball-and-stick molecular model of a coordination complex, where a central transition metal atom (purple) is bonded to several ligands composed of carbon (black) and oxygen (red) atoms. The geometry suggests an octahedral or distorted octahedral arrangement, common in complexes like metal carboxylates or chelates. Such models are essential for visualizing spatial arrangement and bonding in inorganic and organometallic chemistry.

Used in educational resources, chemistry textbooks, online courses, and research presentations to illustrate molecular geometry, ligand field theory, or crystal field splitting. Matches user intent for learning or teaching molecular structure visualization.
