What are the various subgroups of structural isomers?
Structural Isomers- differ in the covalent arrangement of their atoms Geometric Isomers- differ in spatial arrangement around double bonds Enantiomers- mirror images of each other
Why Can't hydrocarbons with single bonds form geometric isomers?
because in order for it to be geometric it has to be double bond. geometric only works with alkenes
