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.
What is an organic compound with identical molecular formulas that differ in the order the atoms are connected?
Organic compounds that have identical molecular formulas but different structural formulas are called isomers.
What is the term for compounds that have the same molecular formula but a different molecular shape?
Isomers.
Basic structural unit of molecular compounds?
this answer to this question is my chem teacher really is bad. horacemann bad chem teachers yay
What does a structural formula depict that a molecular formula does not?
Structural formulas show a representation of the molecular structure, while chemical formulas do not. This is especially important when multiple compounds have the same chemical formula, but a different molecular structure.
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.
Which compounds have the same molecular formula but different structures?
isomers
isomers?
Compounds that have the same atoms (molecular formula) but different in the connectivity between the atoms are constitutional (formerly 'structural') isomers.
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.
Same chemical formula but a different structure?
They would be called: ISOMERS.(Def; molecules or molecular compounds that are similar in that they have the same molecular formula, however have different arrangements of the atoms)For example; glucose and fructose
What is an organic compound with identical molecular formulas that differ in the order the atoms are connected?
Organic compounds that have identical molecular formulas but different structural formulas are called isomers.
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.
How are the properties of molecular compounds different from those of ionic cmpounds?
Molecular (covalent) compounds are not dissociated in water.
What molecules have the same molecular formula but different structures and properties?
Isomers are compounds that have same molecular formulas but different structures. A familiar example is the case of glucose and fructose. Both have the same formula viz, C6H1206. But they have different structures and hence exhibit different properties.
How are molecular compounds different from an ionic compound?
In molecular compounds, atoms are joined by covalent bonds, while in ionic compounds, they are joined by ionic bonds.
What is the term for compounds that have the same molecular formula but a different molecular shape?
Isomers.
Describe the differences between molecular formulas and structural formulas for molecular compounds?
A molecular formula lists the numbers of the atoms of a specific element in a compound. A structural formula is a picture of how the atoms in a specific molecule are connected, with each atom represented by its chemical symbol. For example, oxygen's molecular formula is O2. Its structural formula is O-O.
