Concept explainers
Interpretation:
Using a molecular modeling kit, the molecule shown on the right in Figure 5-2a is to be oriented so that the C, Br, and F atoms occupy the positions shown in the second structure. The drawing of the molecule is to be completed by adding H and Cl atoms in the positions where they appear in the molecular model. Then, these two structures are to be compared to see if they are superimposable.
Concept introduction:
Enantiomers are mirror images of each other. To be isomers of each other, however, they must be different in some way. Enantiomers, therefore, are nonsuperimposable mirror images. Molecules are nonsuperimposable if there is no orientation in which all atoms of both molecules can be lined up perfectly (i.e., superimposed).

To complete the structure, drag the formal charge tags to the appropriate atom(s). Each marker may be used more than once, or not at all. If an atom has a formal charge of zero, do not drag a tag to it. When you drag the marker in, place the little crosshairs in the upper left corner of the marker directly over the atom(s) in question (not above them). H.

- For the species below draw additional resonance structures (where all atoms have access to an octect of electrons) for species A, B, C, and D. Determine the bond order of the bond from the underlined C to underlined O for the lowest energy structure(s). You may need to evaluate the formal charge of the additional species you draw. These are species in an aprotic solvent, so only electrons may be moved, not hydrogen atoms. For each lettered structure below, input the bond order as an integer (1,2,etc) or improper fraction (4/3, 5/4, etc).
