Chemistry - STEREO ISOMERISM Question with Solution | TestHub

Compound (I) is a chiral molecule lacking both a plane and center of symmetry, making it optically active (i). It contains a carboxylic acid group ($-COOH$), which readily dissolves in an alkaline solution to form a salt, meaning it is soluble in NaOH (S). Therefore, the correct combination matching these properties from the columns is (I) (i) (S). This matches Option (B), which is the correct answer.
