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

- Write the letter T or F inside each box after deciding which statement is true or false. 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_forwardSquare planar molecules with formula AB2C2 and octahedral molecules with formulas AB4C2 and AB3C3 feature diastereoisomers. Recall that trigonal bipyramidal geometry features two distinct positions: axial and equatorial. Draw all diastereoisomers for trigonal bipyramidal molecules with formula (a) AB4C and (b) AB3C2. You must indicate the stereochemistry using full and dashed wedges and label all positions as either axial (ax) and equatorial (eq)..arrow_forwardDraw all configurational isomers of C4H11N that are optically active.arrow_forward
- For 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_forwardIs pentanoic acid a chiral molecule or not?arrow_forwardDraw the two stereo isomers of the amino acid Alanine.

- Two VSEPR diagrams for Molecule 1 are given below. They are conformational isomers or molecules that place atoms differently in space because of the rotation of a single bond. H H H:O H:O Conformer 1 H H H Ö: Conformer 2 3. (a) Can you “see” either of the two conformational isomers (Conformer 1 or Conformer 2) in the line drawing that you drew for Molecule 1?
