Video transcript

Well, everyone in this video, we're trying to see if these two molecules here are an anti members are identical. So we're basically looking to see if they're going to be mirror images of one another, and if they're not super imposible, it's kind of like your left and right hand. So if they are then they're going to be anti amours. Let's go ahead and draw a plane here. This is going to be our mirror plane, and we're gonna see here that this is simply a reflection of this, and they look pretty much similar as if they were looking at a mirror and because they are mirror images of one another, then these molecules can be said to be an anti MERS. So that's going to be my final answer for this problem.
