By definition, an asymmetric carbon atom is one that is bonded to four different types of atoms or groups, hence, only one can be a hydrogen atom. If there were two hydrogen atoms you would not have four different kinds of atoms.
Yes, the asymmetric carbon in a molecule is a carbon atom that is bonded to four different groups or atoms.
Chiral carbon and asymmetric carbon are the same thing. They both refer to a carbon atom in a molecule that is bonded to four different atoms or groups, resulting in non-superposable mirror images known as enantiomers.
Yes, an asymmetric carbon atom (chiral center) can create geometric isomers if there are two different groups attached to it that cannot rotate freely around the bond connecting them. This leads to the formation of cis-trans isomers where the spatial arrangement of the groups differs.
it's the one that says asymmetric on it it's in 10 pt times new roman
Eugenol is not chiral because it contains no assymmetric carbons. (carbons with 4 different groups attached to it)
Yes, the asymmetric carbon in a molecule is a carbon atom that is bonded to four different groups or atoms.
Diastereomers are only possible if a molecule has at least two asymmetric carbon atoms (a carbon attached to four different groups or atoms) so alkenes don't have these.
Chiral carbon and asymmetric carbon are the same thing. They both refer to a carbon atom in a molecule that is bonded to four different atoms or groups, resulting in non-superposable mirror images known as enantiomers.
A carbon atom attached to four different groups through sigma bonds is an asymmetric carbon or chiral carbon, this phenomenon is CHIRALITY, it is a basic centre for existing of Enantiomers the stereo isomers.
Every asymmetric carbon (also known as chiral carbon) atom has for different groups attached to it. Those molecules have no planes of symmetry or axes of symmetry with respect to chiral carbon atoms.

The 2nd and 3rd carbon in galactose are asymmetric because they are attached to four different groups or atoms, making them chiral centers. This asymmetry at these carbons gives rise to different stereoisomers of galactose.
A optically active compound should have atleast one carbon atom attached to four different groups. glycine is not active because it has carbon atom attached to 2 hydrogen atoms , 1 amino group and 1 carboxylic group
A carbon atom with four different atoms or groups attached is called a chiral carbon atom. It is also known as a stereocenter and gives rise to optical isomerism in molecules.
Chirality centers in a molecule can be identified by looking for carbon atoms that are bonded to four different groups. These carbon atoms are asymmetric and give the molecule its chirality.
