Plane of symmetry A plane of symmetry bisects a molecule into two mirror image halves. 1-Bromo-1-chloro-2-fluoroethene has a plane of symmetry
A plane of symmetry bisects a molecule into two A plane of symmetry bisects a molecule into two mirror image halves. mirror image halves. 1 -Bromo - 1 -chloro - 2 -fluoroethene has a plane fluoroethene has a plane of symmetry. of symmetry. Plane of symmetry Plane of symmetry
Mirror Planes of Symmetry If two groups are the same,carbon is achiral.(animation) A molecule with an internal mirror plane cannot be chiral. Caution!If there is no plane of symmetry,molecule may be chiral or achiral.See if mirror image can be CI superimposed internal mirror plane of symmetry(o)

Center of symmetry A point in the center of the molecule is a center of symmetry if a line drawn from it to any element, when extended an equal distance in the opposite direction,encounters an identical element
