Question
Molecules whose mirror image is non superimposable over them are known as chiral. Which of the following molecules is chiral in nature?
✓

Answer

The objects which are nonsuperimposable on their mirror images are called enantiomers.
It occurs on that molecule which contains asymmetric carbon or chiral (i.e., a carbon atom attached with four different groups$.)$
in the present case a molecule of $2-$ Bromobutane $\ce{[CH_3 CH_2 C*H(Br) CH_3]}$ is a chiral molecule because,
  1. It contains a chiral carbon atom marked as $(C^*).$
  2. Its mirror image is non$-$superimposable over them.
