AI Chemistry Tutor That Draws the Structure

Chemistry is easier when you can see the structure. Dudely draws molecules as real node and edge structures with single, double and triple bonds, builds balanced equations a term at a time, and explains why a reaction goes the way it does.

It teaches the pattern, not just the product, so the next problem is recognizable instead of memorized.

Stoichiometry

Stoichiometry is the part of chemistry that uses a balanced chemical equation to calculate the amounts of reactants and products. The coefficients in the balanced equation give mole ratios, which act as conversion factors between substances.

Balancing chemical equations

Balancing a chemical equation means adjusting the coefficients in front of each formula so that every element has the same number of atoms on both sides. This satisfies the law of conservation of mass. You change only the coefficients, never the subscripts inside a formula.

Frequently asked questions

Can it draw molecules?

Yes. Dudely builds molecules on the board as real structures, with atoms as nodes and bonds as edges, including double and triple bonds. It draws a single atom as a shell model with its outer electrons, so you can see where bonding comes from.

Can it draw curved-arrow reaction mechanisms?

Not yet, and it will not fake them. Dudely writes reactions as proper equations, with the reagents and conditions over the arrow, and talks through why the reaction goes the way it does. What it cannot currently draw is electron pushing: curved arrows, skeletal structures, and wedge and dash stereochemistry. If that is the whole of what you need, a textbook diagram will serve you better today.

Which organic structures can it actually draw?

A fixed set: the straight-chain alkanes from ethane to hexane, ethene, ethyne and benzene, each as a real bonded structure. Anything outside that set it will explain in words and in equations rather than draw. It is not a general structure editor, it does not generate arbitrary organic skeletons, and mechanism work built on curved arrows is covered in the answer above.
