(Fischer Projection Formula)
Options:
Answer:
C
Solution:
meso-2,3,4-Tribromopentane has a plane of symmetry (σ) passing through C3 (bisecting the H-C3-Br bond, shown by the dashed line): the upper half of the Fischer projection is the mirror image of the lower half. The molecule is achiral (meso) although it contains stereocentres.
