Isomerism
Isomerism is a phenomenon where two or more compounds have the same chemical formula but possesses different structural formulas. In isomerism, the existence of molecules that have the same numbers of the same kinds of atoms (and hence the same formula) but differ in chemical and physical properties. Isomers do not necessarily share similar properties. Basically, there are two types of isomerism they are Structural Isomerism and Stereoisomerism.
Structural Isomerism- Isomers are structural isomers when they have the same molecular formula but different structures, as in how they are linked to each other.
Stereo Isomerism- Stereoisomerism is a phenomenon in which compounds have the same molecular formula but differ in the relative positioning or orientation of atoms in space. Stereoisomers are the compounds exhibiting stereoisomerism.
