A. Structural formula
The structural formula best represents simple molecules as it shows the arrangement of atoms and the bonds between them in a clear manner. Lewis dot structures also represent molecules, particularly focusing on valence electrons and bonding, but structural formulas are generally more comprehensive for depicting the overall structure of simple molecules.
