X-Ray Diffraction and Electron Density Maps

Have you ever wandered how chemists determine the shape of molecules and ionic compounds?
How can they measure bond angles and bond lengths?
One of the most important ways to do this is to use X-ray diffraction.
AUS-e-TUTE has just added a new tutorial, game, test and exam to help you understand X-ray diffraction and electron density maps and to apply that understanding to solving problems in chemistry. AUS-e-TUTE Members should log-in to use these resources (under the Solid State Chemistry topic heading).
If you are not yet an AUS-e-TUTE Member then you can access the "free to view" tutorial at
