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.
