Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The optical isomers and the chiral carbons in
Concept Introduction:
Optical isomers: The compounds that form non-superimposable mirror images of each are called optical isomers.
Chiral molecules: Optical isomers that occur with four different groups attached to the same carbon atom are called as chiral carbon atom and the molecules are called as chiral molecules.
(b)
Interpretation:
The optical isomers and the chiral carbons in
Concept Introduction:
Refer to part (a).
