Answer #1

In the second compound in top row, OH group should be given highest priority number, that is 1, because O has higher atomic number than C. The compound has S configuration. Your answer is correct, but the concept is wrong.

Same mistake in third compound in top row. OH should be given number 1. Configuration of this compound is R.

In last compound in top row, double bond should be given number 1. Configuration is R.

In first compound in bottom row, numbers 1 and 2 have to be interchanged. Configuration is S.

In third compound in bottom row, NH2 should be given number 1. Although, configuration is still R.

In last compound in bottom row, SH should be given number 1. Although, configuration is still R.
