Answer 1

The type of model that best represents the molecular arrangement of crystals is the **space-fill** model. This model provides a three-dimensional representation that is particularly useful for visualizing how molecules are packed together in a crystalline structure. Crystalline molecular arrangements are typically three-dimensional, reflecting their spatial arrangement in a crystal lattice.
