(a)

Interpretation:

The compound pairs should be classified as either enantiomers or diastereomers.

Concept Introduction:

Stereoisomers are molecules with same molecular formula, same molecular formula and different arrangement of atoms in space and they can be divided into two groups, enantiomers and diastereomers. Enantiomers are isomers which are mirror images of each other. Diastereomers are isomers which are not mirror images of each other.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:
