Five isomers, one achiral (meso) and two pairs of enantiomers. a. b. Tow, a pair of enantimoers. Number of chiral centres `=4` (same terminal group) `O.A.I= 2^(n)=2^(4-1)=2^(3)=8` `O.I.A=("meso form")= 2^((n-2)//2)=2^((4-2)//2)=2^(1)=2` Total isomers`= 10` d. Three meso diastereomers: e. Four, two meso and one pair of enantiomers
