Creating models, like the one of sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄), is important because they visually represent the molecular structure, allowing for a better understanding of how atoms are arranged and how chemical bonds form. This understanding is crucial for grasping the properties and behaviors of substances in chemical reactions and applications.
The image is a model of sulfuric acid that has a chemical formula of H2SO4. In 1-2 sentences, explain why creating models, like the one shown in the image above, is important in understanding substances.
