Solution
The correct option is BNH2>COOH>CH3>H R and S configuration is decided on the basis of atomic number. Element with the highest atomic number will get first priority.
- N has the highest atomic number
- When the bonded atom has same atomic number then we look at the 2nd carbon for priority.
