Options:(select one or more)
Answer:
A, C, D

(B) Both P and Q contain one enantiomeric pair along with their meso forms.
(C) Benzene hexachloride (BHC) has a cyclohexane ring after the addition of Cl₂; it is not aromatic.
(D) BHC does not have 7 geometrical isomers; the stereoisomer count involves both geometrical and optical stereoisomerism.
Incorrect statements = A, C, D
