Definitions:

Chiral

Describes a molecule that has non-superimposable mirror images, often resulting in molecules with different optical activities.

Achiral

Describes molecules that are identical to their mirror image and do not exhibit chirality.

Chiral

Pertaining to a molecule that cannot be superimposed on its mirror image, often leading to optical activity.

Achiral

Describing a molecule that is superimposable on its mirror image, thus not exhibiting chirality.
