Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Two distinct configurations of the molecule are to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The double bonded carbon will have two distinct configurations if one atom of the double bond possesses two different atoms or groups attached to it. A double bonded carbon will not have two distinct configurations if one atom of the double bond possesses two similar atoms or groups attached to it.
(b)
Interpretation:
Two distinct configurations of the molecule are to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The double bonded carbon will have two distinct configurations if one atom of the double bond possesses two different atoms or groups attached to it. A double bonded carbon will not have two distinct configurations if one atom of the double bond possesses two similar atoms or groups attached to it.
(c)
Interpretation:
Two distinct configurations of the molecule are to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The double bonded carbon will have two distinct configurations if one atom of the double bond possesses two different atoms or groups attached to it. A double bonded carbon will not have two distinct configurations if one atom of the double bond possesses two similar atoms or groups attached to it.
(d)
Interpretation:
Two distinct configurations of the molecule are to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The double bonded carbon will have two distinct configurations if one atom of the double bond possesses two different atoms or groups attached to it. A double bonded carbon will not have two distinct configurations if one atom of the double bond possesses two similar atoms or groups attached to it.

It does not have to be 100% correct. Just show something that looks good or pretty good as acceptable answers. Something that looks reasonable or correct would be sufficient.
