Solution

The correct option is D Enantiomers
Trans-2-butene and cis-2-butene are diastereomers.
Constitutional isomers have different chemical groups, though same molecular formula.
Diastereomers have different configuration at one or more chiral carbon atoms in a molecule.
Enantiomers are non-superimposable mirror images of each other.
