Explanation / Answer

Options a,c have been correctly marked.

In option b, the top 3 carbon atoms are not chiral centres because they have 2 H atoms each, and for a chiral centre all the four groups have to be different.

In option d, the left C-atom cannot be chiral centre because it has 2 H-atoms attached as well, only the right C-atom is chiral.

In option e, only those 2 C-atoms which are attached to the Br and Cl groups are chiral ,rest are non-chiral.
