Chemical topology considers the consequences of treating molecules as completely flexible objects. When molecular rigidity is no longer a factor, changes occur in how one thinks of molecular structure. This paper discusses some of the consequences of this change in thought. The graph of a molecule (its two-dimensional representation on a plane), the connectivity of its atoms, the molecule's isomeric characteristics, especially chirality, and the other effects of complete flexibility are covered. In addition, simple classroom demonstrations of the concepts are given.
