  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-000018",
  "term": "3D structure",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A representation of a chemical compound that describes the precise spatial arrangement of its atoms in three dimensions. This includes bond lengths, bond angles, and dihedral angles, defining the molecule's overall shape and conformation. Techniques like X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy are used to determine these structures.",
