Question

The instructions are to match the labels into their appropriate bins. I just need more explanation. Compound A and Compound C have the same kind of groups attached connectivity) but are not mirror images. So does that mean they are diastereomers? The same with compound E and F. What qualifies them to be meso compounds?
