chiral
"Chiral" refers to objects that are not superimposable on their mirror images. This concept is commonly seen in chemistry, particularly with molecules. For example, two molecules can have the same formula but differ in their spatial arrangement, making them chiral. These molecules are often referred to as enantiomers.
In everyday life, chiral objects can be found in items like hands or shoes. Your left hand is a mirror image of your right hand, but they cannot be perfectly aligned on top of each other. This property is important in various fields, including pharmaceuticals, where different enantiomers can have different biological effects.
