If a carbon atom forms four covalent bonds with four different atoms or groups, the particular carbon is said to be chiral. And the molecule shows stereoisomerism around that atom.

What is a chiral carbon?
A chiral carbon (from Greek 'hand') is one that is linked to different groups. It is not overlappable with its mirror image because of this.

Chiral carbon is the carbon which is connected to four different groups in a molecule.
What is alpha carbon?
The carbon atom to which four groups are attached either same or different.So every chiral carbon is alpha but every alpha is not a chiral carbon.
