Methanol 3D Molecular Model — CAS 67-56-1

Methanol (CH4O, CAS 67-56-1) — a free educational 3D molecular model for teachers and students, by MolGod.org. Every sphere shows which element it is through an engraved symbol, not a colour code. Lay Methanol on the desk and search for a ring: there isn't one. Its 6 atoms hang together through 5 bonds (all of them single). How many atoms can the class find? The engraved spheres give 1 C + 4 H + 1 O, so the answer should be 6. Before any theory, let students hunt on the model for the hydroxyl group (-OH). Teachers: print one per group and let students check the structure against the formula.
