a. four atoms in a straight line

b. a planar region containing two trigonal-planar carbon atoms

c. tetrahedral carbon atoms throughout

**Examine the geometry of the molecule in the 3D window. Use the atom positions to deduce the nature of the bonds present.**

- **3D Model Description:**
  - The 3D molecular structure is displayed in a "ball & stick" format.
  - Carbon (C) atoms are represented as larger, darker spheres.
  - Hydrogen (H) atoms are represented as smaller, lighter spheres.
  - Bonds between atoms are shown as sticks connecting the spheres.
  - The structure can be manipulated to view the geometry from different angles.
  - Labels can be toggled on or off, and the model size can be adjusted using the zoom options ("-" and "+").

- **Instructions:**
  - **The molecule has:** [Dropdown menu to select the type of bond or number of bonds present]
  - **The molecule must have:** [Dropdown menu to select the required bond, e.g., a carbon-carbon double bond]
  - **Identify the molecule as an alkane, an alkene, or an alkyne:** [Dropdown menu to choose the correct classification - the current selection is "alkene"]

**Instruction:**

Examine the geometry of the molecule in the 3D window. Use the atom positions to deduce the nature of the bonds present.

**3D Molecular Model:**

The image shows a 3D molecular structure represented in a "ball & stick" model. This model helps visualize the atoms as spheres and the bonds as sticks connecting them. The molecular geometry allows for the analysis of bond types and molecular structure.

**Interactive Features:**

- Zoom options: The model can be zoomed in or out using the "+" and "-" buttons.
- Labels: Toggle labels to display or hide atom names.

**Questions:**

1. **The molecule has:** [Dropdown for selecting options]

2. **The molecule must have:** [Dropdown with option "a carbon-carbon triple bond" selected]

3. **Identify the molecule as an alkane, an alkene or an alkyne:** [Dropdown with option "alkyne" selected]

Use the model to assist in determining bond types and characteristics by observing the spatial arrangement of atoms. The presence of a carbon-carbon triple bond suggests the molecule is an alkyne.
