In order to distinguish the relative stereochemistry of two chiral centers situated adjacent to one another, like or unlike notation is used.
For enantiomeric pairs that have same stereochemistry at adjacent carbon atoms, the notation “l” designates “like” and notation “u” designates“un-like”.
Four kinds of symmetry elements that may be present are tabulated as follows:
Presence of any symmetry element makes molecule achiral and optically inactive.

Explanation of Solution
If the groups now are arranged are read from highest towards least in clockwise fashion then R is assigned to the stereocenter, if the rotation is anticlockwise then S is assigned at the configuration.
The products formed in reaction with bromine are both R due to the clockwise priority order indicated in the reaction below.
Since the enantiomers have same stereochemistry on both the carbons so they are like. These enantiomers have

Concept introduction:In order to assign absolute configuration of R and S, Cahn − Ingold − Prelog rules are used and the first step is to assign the priority order with the atomic number as the fundamental property. The one with the highest atomic number gest highest priority and is designated as “1” and so on.

The main difference between one soap and another soap isthe length (number of carbons) of the carboxylic acid. However, if a soap irritates your skin, they mostlikely used too much lye.Detergents have the same chemical structure as soaps except for the functional group. Detergentshave sulfate (R-SO4H) and phosphate (R-PO4H2) functional groups.
