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.
There is only one asymmetric carbon atom in ascorbic acid, hence the possibility of two enantiomeric forms; the L-enantiomer and the D-enantiomer.
A pseudo asymmetric center refers to a carbon atom that appears to be a chiral center due to the presence of four different substituents, but is not truly chiral because two of the substituents are identical or mirror images of each other. This means that the molecule does not have true enantiomers, as the substituents do not create distinct stereoisomers. Pseudo asymmetric centers can often be found in certain types of compounds, particularly in some cyclic structures or in cases where symmetry affects chirality.
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.
Yes it is true that carbon films are formed when a thin film of carbon is left forming a silhouette of the original organism.
An asymmetric synthesis is the synthesis of a specific enantiomer of a compound, a mixture containing more of one enantioner than another.
Yes, the asymmetric carbon in a molecule is a carbon atom that is bonded to four different groups or atoms.
it's the one that says asymmetric on it it's in 10 pt times new roman
true
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.
There is only one asymmetric carbon atom in ascorbic acid, hence the possibility of two enantiomeric forms; the L-enantiomer and the D-enantiomer.
Yes
A pseudo asymmetric center refers to a carbon atom that appears to be a chiral center due to the presence of four different substituents, but is not truly chiral because two of the substituents are identical or mirror images of each other. This means that the molecule does not have true enantiomers, as the substituents do not create distinct stereoisomers. Pseudo asymmetric centers can often be found in certain types of compounds, particularly in some cyclic structures or in cases where symmetry affects chirality.
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.

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.
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.
