Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The chirality of isomeric alcohol having molecular formula
Concept introduction:
A chiral carbon atom is one which is attached to four different atoms or groups.
Different compounds having the same molecular formula are called isomers. They may differ in their constitution or arrangement of atoms in space.
