Enantiomers are the non superimposible mirror images of each other.
to understand this take any compound which if seen in a mirror has non superimposible structure.
Mesomer are defined as the compounds which are optically inactive.
To find out which compound is mesomer you have to only find that if there is any kind of symmetry ( Axis of symmetry, plane of symmetry etc.)
Racemic mixture are the equal amount of d and l structure of a compound.
here d and l are Dextro and laevi rotatory.
however it is not possible to determine theoretically that which one of the two is d or l.
diastereomers are the compound which totally different in structure and there is no similarity in the compound.
Hope you get your answer.

BigSmoke:
There are Cerrain axis of symmetry like C2 axis, C4 axis and many more.
