Chain isomerism : The structural isomerism in which compounds have the same molecular formula but differ in the arrangement of their carbon chains. This difference may be due to straight-chain or branched-chain structures.The carbon atoms are connected in a straight or branched way. Examples: 1.Butane (C₄H₁₀): n-Butane: CH₃–CH₂–CH₂–CH₃ (straight chain)    and Isobutane: CH₃–CH(CH₃)–CH₃ (branched […]

ISOMERISM the phenomenon in which two or more compounds have the same molecular formula but differ in their physical and chemical properties.These compounds are known as isomers. TYPES OF ISOMERISM : Isomerism is broadly divided into two main categories: 1. Structural (constitutional) isomerism.     2. stereoisomerism. I. Structural Isomerism: Structural isomers have the same molecular […]
