Atticus explains to Jem that Tom Robinson has a very slim chance of being acquitted due to the racial prejudices in Maycomb. He wants Jem to understand that despite evidence showing Tom's innocence, the jury may still convict him because of their biases. Atticus emphasizes the importance of fighting for justice even when the odds are stacked against them.

Why does Atticus say he doesn't know if jem will become an engineer a lawyer or a protrait painter?

Its when Jem builds the snowman and replicates Mr Avery. Then Atticus says that to him. I think its because Jem has showed signs in the past that he wants to do what Atticus does; law, not sure about engineer and portrait painter as Jem has shown that he is artistic when he builds the snowman. Actually I think he says engineer as its something completely different from the other 2 jobs he mentions, which exaggerates the diversity of Jem's future.
