Answer:
Explanation:
Stereoisomers are two or more atoms that have the same bonding order of atoms but there is a difference spatial arrangement of the atoms in space.
A plane of symmetry divides a molecule into two equal halves.
A chiral stereoisomer are not superimposed on a mirror image , Hence they do not posses a plane of symmetry.
As a result to that. these non-superimposable mirror images are said to be Enantiomers.
However, a Fischer Projection emanates from a two - dimensional figure which is used for presenting a three - dimensional organic molecules.
From the given question;
Fischer projection for an enantiomer of 2-bromo-2,3-dihydroxypropanal with the bromine oriented horizontally to the left and the hydroxide group oriented horizontally to the right.
we can sketch the way the enantiomer of 2-bromo-2,3-dihydroxypropanal can be seen like the one shown below:
CH₂OH

The objective of this question is to drawn the perspective formula of the molecule.
So , from the attached file below; we can see the perspective formula of the molecule in a well structured 3-D format.
