ちゃんと contains a part of meaning of "appropriate", but they are not same completely.
This is not appropriate. = これはふさわしくない。
You can also think ちゃんと means "not disordered".

If you want to use ちゃんと, try to use it as "neatly" first. It is the closest word to ちゃんと.

Sorry I confused you. As Mr.mfuji says "neat/neatly" is the best option.
