Concept Introduction:

Isomers are the compounds having same molecular formula but different structure. The phenomenon possessed by the molecules is known as isomerism.

Compounds having same molecular formula but possessing different connectivity of atoms or group of atoms are known as constitutional isomers.

The compounds which have same molecular formula, same connectivity of bond but the arrangement of atoms in space is different are known as stereoisomers.

The compounds having same bond connectivity and same molecular formula are known as identical molecules.
