Summary Introduction
To review:
The blank space in the statement, “_____ are non-superimposable, non-mirror-image stereoisomers.”
Introduction:
The molecules (or stereoisomers) that are mirror images of each other, but are not identical, and are non-superimposable, are known as enantiomers. When similar structural (chemical structure) features are present in two different compound, shere is a possibility of them beingnon-superimposable structures.
