Step by step solution

01

Stereogenic centers

The points in a molecule that could generate stereoisomers on interchanging two of the substituents attached to it are named stereogenic centers.

02

Enantiomers

The molecules whose mirror images are non-superimposable are termed enantiomers.

03

Stereogenic centers in the given molecules

The carbon atoms that are hybridized and are bonded to four other groups/atoms are stereogenic centers.

a. The given molecule consists of only one stereogenic center.

Stereogenic center in a

b. The given molecule consists of one stereogenic center.

Stereogenic center in b

c. The molecule consists of one stereogenic center.

Stereogenic center in c

04
