Which of the following statements is true about enantiomers?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Enantiomers have a nonsuperimposable mirror image, meaning they are mirror images of each other but cannot be overlaid onto each other. The other statements are false - not all enantiomers have stereogenic atoms, enantiomers have different physical properties such as optical activity, and enantiomers have identical chemical properties except when interacting with other chiral molecules (such as enzymes or receptors). Additionally, a mixture of two enantiomers will not have the same properties as the two separate enantiomers, as they will have different physical and chemical properties due to their different spatial arrangements.
