(a)

Interpretation:

The substituents in the given set are to be reordered from highest to lowest priority.

Concept introduction:

When assigning priorities to substituents, the atom having the greater atomic number has higher priority. In case of comparison between isotopes, the one having the greater atomic mass gets higher priority.

Complete the following zig-zag structure so that it represents (2R,3S)-3-chlorobutan-2-ol. Please explain you answer.
Problem: Perform a conformational analysis 2-iodo-2-methylbutane, looking down the C2—C3 bond. Pay attention to the relative energies of the various conformations, but do not concern yourself with the actual energy values. Pleae draw newman projections.
I know the answer is correct but I can’t figure out if C is tertiary ? It can’t be secondary because it has more than two carbons connected to the +C
