Expert Solution

Step 1

Enantiomers are those chemical compounds which have same molecular formula and are mirror images of each other but mirror images are non-superimposable on each other.

Diastereomers are those chemical my compounds which have same molecular formula but they are different in configuration. Diastereomers are not mirror images of each other as well as not superimposed on each other.

Identical or same molecule means they are mirror images of each other as well as the mirror images are superimposble on each other.
