An enantiomer is a chiral molecule whose mirror image is not superimposable. your hands for example are enantiomers to each other. In this video I will show you how draw the entaniomers of a chiral molecule and I will demonstrate how the absolute stereochemistry of one enantiomer is the opposite of the other enantiomer.

This video is part of a series called How to be Successful in Organic Chemistry. It this series I go over numerous problems that a student could expect to see in there organic chemistry 1 course. Doing organic chemistry practice problems will make you more successful in organic chemistry and biochemistry.

I recommend that you download the problem from the link below and attempt the problem yourself and use this video to correct your work.

Download the problem from this video at the following link:

Good Luck and Good Chemistry!
