Chemistry Question on introduction to organic chemistry
The incorrect statement regarding chirality is:
A
SN1 reaction yields 1:1 mixture of both enantiomers.
B
The product obtained by SN2 reaction of haloalkane having chirality at the reactive site shows inversion of configuration.
C
Enantiomers are superimposable mirror images on each other.
D
A racemic mixture shows zero optical rotation.
Answer
Enantiomers are superimposable mirror images on each other.
Explanation
Solution
Enantiomers are non-superimposable mirror images on each other.
