An old story....
Explanation:
An achiral body, molecule, entity can be superimposed upon its geometric mirror image. A chiral material, CANNOT be superimposed upon its geometric mirror image.
And the best demonstration of this chirality? Got a friend, of course you do. Well shake hands....your right hands can clasp each other, they could potentially exist in the same space. But can you clasp the right hand of your friend with your left hand; or vice versa?
See this old answer. And I have said the same thing here.
