The three-dimensional structure of $CH_4$ is given below. The bonds are labelled as $W, X, Y$ and $Z$. What are the bonds lying in the plane $(A)$,projecting out of the plane away from the observer $(B)$ and projecting out of the plane towards the observer $(C)$?

  • A
    $A$ (In-plane)$B$ (Away)$C$ (Towards)
    $X, Y$$Z$$W$
  • B
    $A$ (In-plane)$B$ (Away)$C$ (Towards)
    $Z$$W$$X, Y$
  • C
    $A$ (In-plane)$B$ (Away)$C$ (Towards)
    $X, Y$$W$$Z$
  • D
