(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The given pairs of compound identical or enantiomers have to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Isomer: A molecule having the same molecular formula but with different chemical structure is called isomer.

Stereoisomers: Stereoisomers are molecules that have the same molecular formula and they differ only in arrangement of atom in three-dimensional space.

Enantiomers: A compound which is non-superimposable mirror image is called enantiomers.
