how to identify chiral and non chiral substance
TusharTva:
both answers are great and i cannot decide to whom can i mark brainlist
which u find more helpful and good
is last option clear ?
thanks dear

If one carbon has all the 4 groups different then it is a chiral carbon if 2 or more than 2 groups are same then it is non chiral.Here is the example and chiral carbon is denoted by a * sign.
Hope this will help u..

so much thanks di. this was the doubt that was not solved whole year
ok
plz mark it as brainlist
yes will mark. but it will take some days for the button to appear

Hey folk..
•CHIRALITY IS A PHENOMENON THAT PREVADES THE UNIVERSE•
• Defination:
The carbon having asymmetric configuration I.e. having all 4 different groups attached.
• Generally Chiral carbon is denoted by C*.
• A chiral object is one that cannot be superposed on its mirror image , like our right and left hand, that's why chirality is also termed as HANDEDNESS.
NOW RULES TO IDENTIFY CHIRALITY/HANDEDNESS:
1) All groups attached to a carbon must be different.
2) *Even isotopes should be considered as different* (see attachment: 1)
3) Carbon should be sp3 hybridised.
A most important rule which we used to negelect (refer attachment: 2)
• Reason for attachment 2: Try to find difference see a carbon which I marked chiral , now go to the adjacent groups attached , one is hydrogen second is CH2 and third group is a long chain.
This is not much easy to understand but comment here if it is not clear.
Thank you
HOPE IT HELPS..!
