   - Chlorine (Cl) is depicted as a dashed bond (into the plane) on carbon 3.

**2.**
   - Fluorine (F) is depicted as a solid wedge (out of the plane) on carbon 1.
   - Bromine (Br) is depicted as a solid wedge (out of the plane) on carbon 2.
   - Chlorine (Cl) is depicted as a solid wedge (out of the plane) on carbon 3.
  
**3.**
   - Fluorine (F) is depicted as a solid wedge (out of the plane) on carbon 1.
   - Bromine (Br) is depicted as a dashed bond (into the plane) on carbon 2.
   - Chlorine (Cl) is depicted as a solid wedge (out of the plane) on carbon 3.

**4.**
   - Fluorine (F) is depicted as a solid wedge (out of the plane) on carbon 1.
