Question
The image displays four different 3D structural representations of a bromochlorocyclopentane molecule. Each model shows the arrangement of a bromine (Br) and a chlorine (Cl) atom attached to a cyclopentane ring. 1. **Reference Structure** - In the top box, the cyclopentane ring is shown with a bromine atom attached by a solid wedge indicating it is above the plane of the ring, and a chlorine atom attached by a dashed wedge indicating it is below the plane. 2. **Structure A** - The bromine atom is represented with a solid wedge, and the chlorine with a solid wedge as well, both above the plane of the cyclopentane ring. 3. **Structure B** - The bromine atom uses a dashed wedge to show it is below the plane, while the chlorine atom is shown above the plane with a solid wedge. 4. **Structure C** - Both the bromine and chlorine atoms are connected with dashed wedges, indicating both are below the plane of the cyclopentane ring. 5. **Structure D** - The bromine atom is shown with a solid wedge, indicating it is above the plane, and the chlorine with a solid wedge, also above the plane. These diagrams illustrate the concept of stereoisomerism, showing how different spatial arrangements of atoms can exist despite sharing the same molecular formula.

Expert Solution
Step 1

-> Enantiomer of any chiral molecule is molecule which has just reverse configuration at chiral center .

-> Diastereomers are compounds which have some chiral carbon with similar configuration and some chiral center has reverse configuration.
