Neopentyl glycol (C5H12O2, CAS 126-30-7) — a free educational 3D molecular model for teachers and students, by MolGod.org. Symbols are engraved into every atom, so students read atoms by symbol, not by colour. Neopentyl glycol is a chain molecule with no ring: 18 bonds (all of them single) connect its 19 atoms. Counting task: 5 C + 12 H + 2 O gives 19 engraved spheres; can the class rebuild the formula C5H12O2 from the model alone? Team task: with the model in hand, each group marks the two hydroxyl groups (-OH), then writes down what they found.
