10. Determine whether each compound is chiral or Achiral

**Part 3 of 4** The image shows a cyclohexane chair conformation with two hydroxyl (OH) groups attached. One hydroxyl group is positioned equatorially on the top carbon, while the other is positioned axially pointing downwards. Below the diagram are two options to select the chirality of the molecule: - o chiral - o achiral A highlighted button indicates the achiral option was selected.
