Solution:
Step 1
(a) 1,3-dichloropropadiene
There is no asymmetric C atoms in this given molecule but it has chiral C atom.
Three dimensional picture of 1,3-dichloropropadiene is given below,
In this 3D structure it has been found that, there is no plane of symmetry because all the molecules are present in different planes.
