Compounds that show D or L characteristics are chiral molecules. A chiral molecule has a nonsuperimposable mirror image of itself.
Chiral compounds are optically active, that means they rotate polarized light to the left or to the right depending on their configuration
For a molecule with n chiral centers, there are a possible 2^n isomers that can be formed.

There is only 1 chiral center in 2,6-dimethyloctane. At first glance it may appear that there are two, but in the case of the second carbon in the compound, it is bound to methyl groups, making it achiral.
It depends upon structure and position of double bond 1-hexene, 2-hexene and 3-hexene do not have the chiral center their isomer 3-methyl-1-pentene has a chiral center which is carbon no 3.
Yes, there is a methyl group attached to the number 2 carbon as well as hydrogen, bromine and a hexyl group. All that is required for chirality about a carbon atom is that there be four different groups attached. This requirement is fulfilled in 2-bromooctane.

Glucose is a Chiral molecule having 4 chiral carbons.
No, SiF4 does not have a chiral center.
A bishydroxamic acid is any of a group of compounds having two hydroxamic acid groups, especially those chiral compounds with two adjacent hydroxamic acid groups used in asymmetric synthesis.
