AI Generated Solution

To solve the question, we will analyze each molecule step by step to identify any chiral centers and determine the number of stereoisomers possible for each. ### (i) 2-Aminobutane 1. **Structure**: The structure of 2-aminobutane is CH3-CH(NH2)-CH2-CH3. 2. **Chirality**: The carbon atom at the second position (C2) is attached to four different groups: - NH2 (amino group) - CH3 (methyl group) - CH2CH3 (ethyl group) ...
