The correct response is:

A 3D model shows how the different atoms are arranged, but the formula model does not.

This is because a 3D model provides a spatial representation of the molecule, illustrating how atoms are connected and their spatial orientation, while a formula model (like the molecular formula C6H12O6 for glucose) indicates the types and numbers of atoms present without providing information on their arrangement.
