Select the correct statement

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

Structure R contains two stereogenic (chiral) centres.

It does not possess an internal plane of symmetry.

Therefore, R is a chiral molecule.

Chiral molecules rotate plane-polarized light and are optically active.

Hence, statement (B) is correct.

Other options are incorrect because S is not meso and P & Q are identical, not a racemic mixture.
