Achiral

Mandarin:
非手性的
Explanation in English Language (EN):
A molecule that is superimposable on its mirror image. In other words, it lacks chirality or "handedness." Many molecules important in materials science, like ethylene and benzene, are achiral.
Explanation in Mandarin (ZH):
与其镜像可以叠加的分子。换句话说,它缺乏手性或“旋向性”。许多在材料科学中很重要的分子,如乙烯和苯,都是非手性的。(yǔ qí jìng xiàng kě yǐ dié jiā de fēn zǐ. huàn jù huà shuō, tā quē fá shǒu xìng huò "xuán xiàng xìng". xǔ duō zài cái liào kē xué zhōng hěn zhòng yào de fēn zǐ, rú yǐ xī hé běn, dōu shì fēi shǒu xìng de.)
