Astudent creates a ball-and-stick model to represent the atomic scale of a substance. which of the following best describes the model? a. 1 molecule with 10 atomsb. 1 element with 10 moleculesc. 10 molecules representing 10 elementsd. 10 elements representing 10 molecules

Option A. 1 molecule with 10 atoms

Explanation:

Each ball in the diagram represents an atom and the stick represents a bond.

A careful look at the diagram of the student's model reveals that the student's model contains 10 balls which represents 10 atoms. This means that a molecule of the student ball-and-stick model contains 10 atoms.
