Question

Wht is optical isomerism​

Answer 1

ANSWER

• Optical isomers are compounds that are no nsuperimposable mirror images of each other.
• Isomers are molecules that have the same molecular formula but a different arrangement of atoms in space.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Optical isomers are two compounds which contain the same number and kinds of atoms, and bonds (i.e., the connectivity between atoms is the same), and different spatial arrangements of the atoms, but which have non-superimposable mirror images. Each non-superimposable mirror image structure is called an enantiomer.

Optical isomers are compounds that are nonsuperimposable mirror images of each other. ... If the arrangement in space makes the two isomers nonsuperimposable mirror images of each other, we call them optical isomers or enantiomers. An example is the amino acid alanine.
