Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the Atoms in the Molecule

Examine the molecular model and the key provided. The model shows:

  • 1 black sphere (carbon)
  • 1 blue sphere (oxygen)
  • 3 white spheres (hydrogen)
Step 2: Count the Number of Each Type of Atom

From the model:

  • Carbon (C): 1 atom
  • Oxygen (O): 1 atom
  • Hydrogen (H): 3 atoms
Step 3: Write the Chemical Formula

Combine the counts of each type of atom to form the chemical formula.

Final Answer

The chemical formula for the molecule is CH₃OH.
