The correct Answer is:
To determine the total acyclic optically active isomers of the compound \( C_3H_2D_2 \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the possible structures The molecular formula \( C_3H_2D_2 \) indicates that we have three carbon atoms, two hydrogen atoms, and two deuterium atoms. Since we are looking for acyclic (open-chain) structures, we can consider the following arrangements: 1. **Structure 1**: A straight-chain with a double bond: - \( H_2C=CH-CH_2D \) - This structure can also be represented as \( H_2C=CH-CHD_2 \). 2. **Structure 2**: Another arrangement with a double bond: - \( H_2C=CHD-CH_2D \) - This structure can also be represented as \( H_2C=CHD_2-CHD \). ### Step 2: Analyze the structures for optical activity Next, we need to analyze these structures to determine if they are optically active or inactive. - **Structure 1**: \( H_2C=CH-CH_2D \) - This structure has a plane of symmetry, making it optically inactive. - **Structure 2**: \( H_2C=CHD-CH_2D \) - This structure does not have a plane of symmetry, making it optically active. ### Step 3: Count the optically active isomers From our analysis: - We found **one** optically active structure (Structure 2). - The other structure (Structure 1) is optically inactive. ### Conclusion Therefore, the total number of acyclic optically active isomers of \( C_3H_2D_2 \) is **1**. ### Final Answer The total acyclic optically active isomers of \( C_3H_2D_2 \) are: **1**.
