- Enantiomers
- Chiral Centres
- Racemic Mixture
- Diastereomers
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Diastereomers are stereoisomers that have the same molecular formula and connectivity but are not mirror images of each other. They differ in physical and chemical properties, unlike enantiomers which are mirror images.
