Chemistry

AveGali [126]3 years ago

Answer:

methylcyclohexane does not possess a chiral center

Explanation:

A molecule is said to possess a chiral center if one or more of the atoms in the molecule is bonded to four different atoms or groups.

If we look at methylcyclohexane, none of the carbon atoms in the molecule is bonded to four different atoms or groups hence the molecule contains no chiral centers and will not exhibit optical isomerism.

So, methylcyclohexane has a plane of symmetry thus it is an achiral molecule.

A is the answer

In an ozone molecule, the three atoms must be connected, so there must at least be a single bond between them. Place

dots in pairs around the oxygen atoms until each oxygen atom has eight valence electrons, starting with the atoms on the

outside and doing the central atom last if there are enough. Do not exceed the total number of valence electrons

identified in part A. Remember that the dashes between the oxygen atoms, which represent single bonds, each indicate

the presence of two valence electrons
