(i) Write a three-dimensional structure for 2-chloropentane and 3-chloropentane. Star all asymmetric carbons in the structure you draw.
(ii) Draw the mirror image for each three-dimensional structure, and state whether the mirror images and the structures you drew in part (i) are enantiomers or identical molecules.
