Understanding Wedge and Dash Bonds in Stereochemistry

What is the primary purpose of using wedge and dash bonds in stereochemistry?

• To denote the molecular weight

• To represent the charge of an atom

• To indicate the type of chemical bond

• To show the spatial orientation of atoms

When drawing an enantiomer, what tool is used to reposition a group to its mirror image position?

• The erase tool

• The select tool

• The color tool

• The bond tool

In which scenarios are wedge and dash bonds available in the drawing palette?

• In all types of chemical questions

• Only in questions that require stereochemistry

• In questions involving ionic bonds

• In questions about molecular weight
