Question

Write wedge dash representation for the following compound.
$C{H}_{3}Cl$
Assume one Hydrogen is below the plane and chlorine is above the plane.

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer 1

The correct option is C

Let’s draw according to the question. Remember that wedge and dash should be adjacent. Although this need not be true in reality, this is the convention we follow.
So, chlorine above the plane, a dash.

Hydrogen below the plane, a wedge.

Rest? They will be in the plane right?
