Considerthe image below. a. Draw the mirror image of structure I and label it as structure II.b. Are I and II chiral?c. What kind of stereocenters do they represent?
1. If life arose by “chemical evolution” (which is supposed to be new chemical compounds arising by random chance), what should be the proportion of each of the L- and D-enantiomers present in chiral compounds produced by random chance? How does this match with what we see in living systems? What conclusion can you make from this about the likelihood of life arising by “chemical evolution?" 2. Why does chirality make a difference when new medications are developed? What is an ethical way of addressing this concern in the development process? What is the connection with the way the body is designed?

Assign an R or S configuration to each chiral center
Identify the configuration of each chiral center in the following compound I put 3,6 as chirial center, and both are R configured, but the answer was both S. The Hs are on the horizontal lines so they are coming out of the page, when low priority atom is in the front, the configuration changes. I am confused with this.
