    But Leah, I am confused about Thiol & Sulphanyl. Sometime you are counting SH with carbon saying thiol somethime not counting SH saying Sulphayl. How could I know which one is Thiol or Sulphany.

      It comes with practice and knowing. You should have a list in your textbook of the substituents you have to know.

      It’s something you have to look up and then practice to ensure you’re comfortable with it
