Solution

The correct option is D ABCD4321
Enantiomers are non-superimposable mirror images and they are optically active.

Diastereomers are stereoisomers whose molecules are not mirror images of each other.

Mesomers have chiral carbon but they lack optical activity due to the presence of element of symmetry except axis of symmetry.

Racemic mixture is the equimolar mixture of d- and l-isomer of an compound. They are optically inactive because both isomer nullify each other light rotation property.
Thus,
ABCD4321
