Chiral
Step by step solution
01
Definition of chiral
Chiral objects are those which have non-superimposable mirror images of each other.
02
Check Chirality
The images on both sides of the mirror are not superimposable as the spot position may differ.
As we all know that golf ball has non-superimposable mirror images due to the small pores like the design on the surface of the golf ball.
Hence golf ball is chiral.
