(a)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The configuration of each asymmetric carbon atom of enantiomers drawn as (R) or (S).

Interpretation: The configuration of each asymmetric carbon atom of enantiomers drawn is to be designated as (R) or (S).

Concept introduction: A chiral carbon atom is attached to four different atoms or group of atoms and shows a tetrahedral geometry. The mirror image of a chiral compound is non-super imposable. The two different forms in which a single chiral carbon can exist are referred to as enantiomers. The number of enantiomers of a molecule depends on the number of chiral centers.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction
