Question

please label clearly

Stereochemistry: Choose the chiral structures Choose the chiral structures among the ones shown. Check all that apply. Stereochemistry: Choose the achiral structures Choose all the achiral compounds among the ones shown. (Each of your choices can be achiral in any conformation, not just the ones shown.) Check all that apply.

Answer 1

Chiral compounds are the compounds which do not have any plane of symmetry in the molecule. If the molecule has plane of symmetry, then it is achiral. Hence, identify the molecules whiclh have plane of symmetry. The molecules which have planes of symmetry as follows: CI C CI CI CI CI CI The blue colored lines represent the mirror planes in the molecules. Hence, these three compounds are achiral. The remaining three are chiral
