How many isomer of C6H10?
Three organic compounds have this chemical formula.
Why do geometrical isomers differ in their physical and chemical properties?
Isomers differ in their structural formulas. For example, the chemical formula for the simple sugars glucose, fructose, and galactose is C6H12O6, but their structural formulas are different, which gives them different properties. Glucose, fructose, and galactose are isomers of one another.
What is the difference between optical and structural isomers?
Structural isomers also called constitutional isomers are different compounds that have same molecular formula but different molecular structure. Structural isomers have same number of each type of atoms but the atoms are connected in a different order in them. Structural isomerism is seen in organic compounds. It can be due to different arrangement of carbon chain, due to different position of functional group on the carbon chain, due to different functional groups that give their family of compounds same molecular formula. Difference in arrangement of atoms is visible if structural formulas are written for compounds having same molecular formula. Like structural isomers, stereoisomers also have same molecular formula. Stereoisomers are not structural isomers. Stereoisomers have their atoms connected in same sequence( same constitution), but they differ in the arrangement of atoms in space. Cis and trans isomers of alkenes are examples of stereoisomers. Carbon chain arrangement, position of functional groups, and everything that could be different in structural isomerism is same here.
What is different and similar about isomers?
Isomers are similar in that they have the same molecular formula, but there are also differences because their structural formulae are different. The type and degree of the differences in behaviour depends on which sort of isomerism it is.
What are compounds with the same structural formula but different arrangements of atoms in space called?
Isomers are compounds that have the same molecular formula but different arrangements of atoms.
Which compounds have the same molecular formula but different structures?
isomers
Two compounds that have the same molecular formula but different structural formulas are?
Two compounds that have the same molecular formula but different structural formulas are isomers of each other.
isomers?
Compounds that have the same atoms (molecular formula) but different in the connectivity between the atoms are constitutional (formerly 'structural') isomers.

What are two hydrocarbons with the same molcular formula but different structural formulas called?
Isomers
Do isomers have three dimensional structures?
Yes, that is correct. Isomers of a compound have the same chemical formula but different structural formulas.
How are organic compounds classified if they have with the same molecular formula but different structural formulas?
they are structual isomers. In alenes they will be e or z isomers ( cis trans0

How do you determine the structural isomers of C6h14?
Just try to draw the structures with different arrangements of carbon atoms having four valencies each, there are 5 isomers for this formula.
