Glycidol 3D Molecular Model — CAS 556-52-5

Glycidol (C3H6O2, CAS 556-52-5) — a free educational 3D molecular model for teachers and students, by MolGod.org. No legend required: the element symbol is engraved on each atom.

In Glycidol the ring system sets the overall shape: one 3-membered ring. Altogether 11 bonds hold the model together (all of them single). Counting task: 3 C + 6 H + 2 O gives 11 engraved spheres; can the class rebuild the formula C3H6O2 from the model alone? There is one stereocentre in Glycidol; the configuration is not specified in this record, so students can work out what the R and S forms would look like.
