1. Stereoisomerism
Régine Lane

2. Defined.
Compounds containing at least on carbon atom that is
attached to four different groups give rise to a special class of
isomers called enantiomers. Enantiomers are defined as non-
super imposable mirror images of each other.
Non-superimposable means that it is unable to join any other
molecule.

3. The mirror image of
Bromochloroidomethane

4. Bromochloroido
methane
The model we made in class.

5. Extra.
The Hydrogen is not necessary in the model or even in the
molecular formula.
The Hydrogen is only necessary in the complete structure
because carbon likes to bond in four places.
