The structure of a small molecule can also be shown as a three-dimensional ball and stick model. These models show how the atoms and bonds are arranged in space. The diagram shows a ball and stick ...

The ball-and-stick and first space-filling model show that sucrose is a large molecule made up of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen. Sucrose has many O–H bonds which are polar. These polar areas are shown ...
