Chapter 1.4, Problem 3P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The tetrahedral geometry of a molecule of chloroform with molecular formula CHCl3 is to be drawn using solid, wedged and dotted lines.

Concept introduction:

To draw the structure of a tetrahedral carbon attached to four atoms or groups using solid, wedged and dotted lines certain conventions are used. The solid line is used to represent the bonds present in the plane of the paper, heavy wedged line is used to represent a bond coming out of the plane of the paper and the dotted line is used to represent a bond going back behind the plane of the paper.

To determine:

The tetrahedral geometry of a molecule of chloroform with molecular formula CHCl3 using solid, wedged and dotted lines.
