- Construct a model in which a tetrahedral carbon atom has four different colored model atoms attached to it- red, green, orange and white representing 4 different atoms attached to the central atom. a) Does the atom have a plane of symmetry? why or why not? b) Now replace the green atom in your model with a second orange atom. Now two of the groups attached to the carbon atom are identical. Does the model now have a plane of symmetry? Describe it. c)A carbon atom has four different groups attached to the stereogenic center.
