what does a solid line represent in a molecule diagram
A solid line represents a bond that is in the same plane as the central atom (the nitrogen atom)
what does a solid wedge represent in a molecule diagram
A solid wedge represents a bond that is coming out of the plane, towards the viewer.
what does a dashed wedge represent in a molecule diagram
A dashed wedge (or a series of dashes) represents a bond that is going into the plane, away from the viewer.
