Apr 12, 2022 at 19:46 comment added Zhe Generally, the holes in that oxygen aren't for bonds. My experience has been that aside from the tetrahedral looking oxygen, they also have an oxygen that has 5 holes. Two antipodally placed, and 3 in a perpendicular plane. This is supposed to represent a sp2 hybridized oxygen atom. I've seen model sets with a similar carbon atom. They also have fancy blobs that represent orbitals that you can put into the holes that are out of plane.
