Best Answer

An isomer is a molecule or compound that has the same number of atoms as another but a different structure, different physical and chemical properties.

Isomers can exist because in large molecules there are several different ways you can position the same elements to make different structures.

A carbon molecule that has a different arrangement of atoms is known as a?

Is known as an Isomer.====Answer 2An isomer is a variation of a compound with a different chemical structure.Carbon, by itself, of course is an element and not a compound. Thus I believe that this is known as an allotrope of carbon and not an isomer. Graphite and diamond are allotropes of carbon as the arrangement of the atoms differs.
