Explanation:
The term "chiral" in general is used to describe the object that is non-superposable on its mirror image. In chemistry, chirality usually refers to molecules. Two mirror images of a chiral molecule are called enantiomers or optical isomers.

Answer:
(i) Chirality is the property of a molecule to have non super-imposable mirror image. These molecules contain one asymmetric carbon atom. e.g., Butan - 2- ol. (ii) CH3CHClCH2CH is more easily hydrolyzed due to the formation of more stable secondary carbocation.
