The condition of handedness or lack of superimposabil-ity of molecules differing only with respect to the stereochemical arrangement of identical substituents around a tetrahedral center. In 1893, Lord Kelvin succinctly defined chirality I call any geometrical figure, or any group of points, chiral, and say that it has chirality, if its image in a plane mirror, ideally realized, cannot be brought to coincide with itself. ... 

Fire Triangle A plane geometric figure in which the three sides of an equilateral triangle represent oxygen, heat, and fuel, the elements necessary to sustain combustion. 

There are many objects, both animate and inanimate, which have no symmetry planes but which occur in pairs related by a symmetry plane and whose mirror images cannot be superposed. W. H. Thompson, Lord Kelvin, wrote I call any geometrical figure or group of points... 

The unlabeled triangle is the simplex in E (2-simplex) and the unlabeled tetrahedron is the simplex in (3-simplex) evidently, whether enantiomorphous -simplexes can be partitioned into homochirality classes depends on the dimension of E". Recall that an /j-simplex is a convex hull of + 1 points that do not lie in any (n - l)-dimensional subspace and that are linearly independent that is, whenever one of the points is fked, the n vectors that link it to the other n points form a basis for an n-dimensional Euclidean space An n-simplex may be visualized as an n-dimensional polytope (a geometrical figure in E" bounded by lines, planes, or hyperplanes) that has n + vertices, n n + )/2 edges, and is bounded by n + 1 (u — l)-dimensional subspaces. It has been shown that the homochirality problem for the simplex in E is shared by all -sim-...
