i think it is when a molecule can be expressed in several different ways for example: C4H8 could be butane or 2 methyl propane. It would still have the same number of Carbons and Hydrogens but its structure would be different.
Structural isomers differ in the bonding order of the atoms within the organic compounds. While stereo isomers have the same bonding order of atoms but the atoms are arranged differently in space.
Two compounds that have the same molecular formula but different structural formulas are isomers of each other.
Organic compounds that have identical molecular formulas but different structural formulas are called isomers.
they are structual isomers. In alenes they will be e or z isomers ( cis trans0
No, because the second formula contains an oxygen atom and the first formula does not. Structural isomers must have the same numbers of all types of atoms.
Yes, ethoxyethane and methoxypropane are isomers. The structure for ethoxyethane is : CH3-CH2-O-CH2-CH3 The structure for methoxypropane is : CH3-O-CH2-CH2-CH3 The formula is the same, they both have 4 carbons, 10 hydrogens, and 1 oxygen. The only difference is their structure. Therefore, they are indeed isomers.
The three main types of isomers are structural isomers, geometric isomers, and enantiomers.
These are not optical isomers they are functional group isomers a subcategory of structural isomers.

Xylene has structural isomers.
There are Five structural isomers of C3H6Cl Br
pentane
None, as it has 5 structural isomers in which none of are optically active.
Molecules with the same molcular formulae but differing structural formulae are called isomers.
Two compounds that have the same molecular formula but different structural formulas are isomers of each other.
