The two enantiomers of secondary butyl chloride differ from each other in which one of the following properties?

A
Boiling point
Correct answer
B
Specific rotation
C
Density
D
$\mathrm{Cl}-\mathrm{Cl}$ bond length

Solution

Enantiomers have same physical properties but differ in specific rotation. Thus, the two enantiomers of secondary butyl chloride differ in specific rotation.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
