List the name and position for each substituent in this organic molecule on a separate row of the table below:
Your answer for the name column should be just one word. In the position column, write the number of the carbon where
the substituent is attached to the parent ring (which has been highlighted for you).
Note for advanced students: You may assume that the parent ring is numbered in a counter-clockwise fashion with position
#1 at the top of this molecule.
You can add more rows to the table if you need them.

Construct a model in which a tetrahedral carbon atom has four different colored model atoms attached to it- red, green, orange and white representing 4 different atoms attached to the central atom.
a) Does the atom have a plane of symmetry? why or why not?
b) Now replace the green atom in your model with a second orange atom. Now two of the groups attached to the carbon atom are identical. Does the model now have a plane of symmetry? Describe it.
c)A carbon atom has four different groups attached to the stereogenic center. Draw structural formulas for the following compound and mark stereogenic centers with as asterisk: 1-bromobutane, 2-bromobutane, 1,2-dibromobutane, 1,4-dibromobutane, 2,3-dibromobutane.
