Sodium Stearate Molecule

[kerravonsen]

When I was asking about interesting molecules yesterday, scaratch suggested "soap". The chief ingredient of most common soaps is Sodium Stearate. So I made a molecule diagram for it (thanks to Wikipedia) using the graph-drawing program GraphViz.

I think this counts as Art because I made it to be used as a component of future Art, and I tweaked it so that it was Pleasing in Appearance.

It looks like a seahorse! That's very clever and emotionally satisfying. Soapy the Seahorse.

Huh, you're right! I didn't notice that. I was trying to get it to go into an "S" shape but it wouldn't cooperate, so that was the next-best shape. So, yeah, the seahorse thing wasn't deliberate. Serendipity for the win!

Oh, yes I agree it is very clever. And a lovely clean seahorse it is :)
