Of course.  :)

1. I'd rearrange the 5-outer atoms into a trigonal bipyramid.
That's how almost everything is structured, for orbital reasons.

2. You could look up the atomic radii of all the atoms, the covalent bond
lengths, and the usual colors of the atoms in molecular model kits.  Maybe do
more of a blob, or CPK space-filling kind of representation.

3. If you modeled a little square or box, you could simulate reactions.  Detect
collisions, and then combine molecules or swap atoms. You could try something
simple like the N02 <---> N2O4 equilibrium.

4. Astronomers estimate that roughly 10% to 25% of all elemental carbon in space
is locked up in Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons.  You'll LOVE those.

:D

Good work - you should make a sudden flash at the beginning of the animation.

Next you'll be condensing molecules into clouds of matter, which become planets,
and suns, and ...  ;)
