Answer:
Fischer projection of lactic acid
A Fischer projection or Fischer projection formula is a convention used to depict a stereoformula in two dimension without destroying the stereochemical information, i.e., absolute configuration, at chiral centers. eg: (R)-Lactic acid.
The lactic acid molecule has one chiral center. Therefore, a Fischer projection representing either enantiomer of lactic acid has the following bond skeleton around the chiral center. There are four ligands to be placed on the four sites: CH 3, CO 2 H, OH, and H.
