Interpretation:
From the given molecule, the plane of symmetry and relationship of the compound should be explained.
Concept introduction:
Isomer: Molecule has same molecular formula but different structural arrangement is called isomer.
Geometric isomerism (also known as E-Z isomerism or cis-trans isomerism): same molecular formula but different arrangement in the space. These isomers happen where you have restricted rotation in a molecule (double bond in the molecule). The
Constitutional isomer: (or structural) isomers differ in the connectivity they contain different functional groups and / or bonding patterns is called constitutional isomer.
Enantiomers: Two stereoisomers that are mirror images of each other and they are non-supposable

Then on the 3rd box, write the letter of your choice based on the given instructions. A if both statements are true. B if the 1st statement is false and the 2nd statement is true. C if the 1st statement is true and the 2nd statement is false. D if both statements are false. T-arrow_forward(a) Draw all non - isomorphic unlabeled trees with six vertices. (b) How many isomers of Hexane C6H14 are there? Justify your answer.arrow_forward
- Draw all configurational isomers of C4H11N that are optically active.arrow_forwardFor each compound, determine whether the molecule has an internal mirror plane of symmetry. If it does, draw the mirror plane on a three-dimensional drawing of the molecule. If the molecule does not have an internal mirror plane, determine whether the structure is chiral. cis-1,2-dibromocyclobutanearrow_forwardSection 7.3 shows that the compound 2-butene exists intwo isomeric forms, which can be interconverted only bybreaking a bond (in that case, the central double bond).How many possible isomers correspond to each of the following chemical formulas? Remember that a simple rotation of an entire molecule does not give a different isomer.Each molecule contains a central CuC bond.(a) C2H2Br2(b) C2H2BrCl(c) C2HBrClFarrow_forward

Use your models for parts (a) through (d) and any others that seem unclear.1,3-dichloropropadienearrow_forwardThe drawing below shows that cis-1,2-dichlorocyclohexane is chiral. Efforts to resolve this compound fail. Why? ÇI Mirror ÇI -- CI Select the correct response: the chair conformers rapidly interconvert producing a racemic mixture. the cis and trans isomers rapidly interconvert. methods for resolving alkyl chlorides are not available. the compound is actually a meso structure.arrow_forwardWrite the name of the following compounds. Which of them are stereoisomers? Which of them are optically active? Use cis-trans, (E)(Z) nomenclature and assign the absolute configuration (R),(S), if any to each chiral center.arrow_forward
