**1. Consider the following molecules:**

[Two cyclohexane diagrams labeled as A and B, each with an OH group attached.]

a) Circle the chirality center(s) in each molecule.

b) Assign priorities to each chirality center you identified in molecule A and determine if each chirality center is R or S.

c) Determine if each chirality center is R or S for molecule B.

d) What is the stereochemical relationship between these two molecules?

e) Draw the most stable chair form for molecule A.

f) Draw the most stable chair form for molecule B.

g) Do you expect one molecule to be more stable than the other? If so, which one and why? If not, why not?
