Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Whether the following pair of molecule is constitutional isomers or not should be identified:
Concept Introduction:
Constitutional isomers can be defined as the pair of molecules with the same molecular formula, but different structural formula. This phenomenon is known as isomerism.
