Step by step solution

01

Plane of symmetry

An imaginary plane that bisects a molecule dividing it into two equal/identical halves is termed plane of symmetry.

02

Plane of symmetry and chirality

Molecules that possess a mirror plane or plane of symmetry are termed achiral and the ones that do not possess a plane of symmetry are termed chiral.

03

Plane of symmetry of the given molecules

The plane of symmetry of the given molecules are as follows:

a.

Plane of symmetry in compound a
