A structural formula is a type of chemical formula, differing from a simple formula. The simple formula for Glucose, for example, is C6H12O6, and only says what is in that substance. The structural formula is a general sketched map of the elements and where they bond. Try googling a picture of the Glucose structural formula to see what I mean.
