As a very crude analogy, think of a playground slide with dents in it that are the size and shape of a left shoe print. If we put some shoes at the top and let them slide down, the left shoes will be more likely to get stuck in the dents than the right shoes (which don't fit as well and therefore slide over them more easily).
Yes, glycine is not a chiral molecule because it does not have a chiral center.
NP-HPLC is "Normal Phase" HPLC, wherein the solvents used are less polar than the substrate in the HPLC column (e.g. using hexane or dichloromethane with a silica HPLC column). RP-HPLC is "Reverse-Phase" HPLC, wherein the solvents used are more polar than the substrate in the HPLC column (e.g. using Water and Methanol with a octadecylsilane (ODS or C18) column).
The structure appears to have 8 chiral carbons.
The chiral center of captopril is the sulfur atom (S). It is a chiral compound with one chiral center due to the presence of the sulfur atom in a tetrahedral environment with four different substituents.
Heroin has one chiral carbon.
Chiral HPLC methods are often non-aqueous because many chiral stationary phases are not compatible with high levels of water due to stability and performance issues. Using non-aqueous solvents can also improve the resolution and selectivity of chiral separations in HPLC.
our hands, because they are mirror images of each other

Yes, glycine is not a chiral molecule because it does not have a chiral center.
Glucose is a Chiral molecule having 4 chiral carbons.

Yes, it is chiral
The structure appears to have 8 chiral carbons.
Based on its structure, it does NOT have a chiral center so NO
The chiral center of captopril is the sulfur atom (S). It is a chiral compound with one chiral center due to the presence of the sulfur atom in a tetrahedral environment with four different substituents.
For a molecule with n chiral centers, there are a possible 2^n isomers that can be formed.
There are four chiral centeres -pHd in Chemical Engeinerring from the Universty of Cambridge
