Space-filling molecular model =)
A three-dimensional model, such as a ball-and-stick or space-filling model, best represents a molecule's three-dimensional shape because it shows the arrangement of atoms in space. These models provide a more realistic view of molecular structure compared to flat, two-dimensional representations like Lewis structures or line-angle formulas.
It shows the shape of the molecule
This is a structural formula.
A space filling model is a type of molecular model that represents molecules as densely packed spheres. The spheres are used to approximate the actual size and shape of atoms or groups of atoms in a molecule. These models are commonly used to visualize molecular structures and understand the spatial arrangement of atoms in a molecule.
A molecular formula shows the types and numbers of atoms in a molecule, but not the bonds. A structural formula shows the way in which the atoms bond.
A molecular formula shows the numbers and kinds of atoms in a molecule but not the arrangement of the atoms.

The ball-and-stick model shows the shape of the molecule.
This is a structural formula.
The ball and stick model works pretty well.
Ball-and-Stick Model
in XeO3 ,Xe shows sp3 but shape is pyramidal because of the presence of a lone pair of electrons on the central xenon atom. This lone pair distorts the shape of the molecule making it pyramidal.
The molecular formula shows the numbers and types of atoms in a molecule, but not how they are bonded. The structural formula shows how the atoms are bonded.
