Concept explainers
Interpretation:
Total number of isomers that is possible for the formula
Concept Introduction:
Isomers are compounds with same molecular formula but with difference in the bonding present in it. They have different properties also from each other.
Geometric isomers are the isomers of same compound which differ in the relative positions the atoms occupy in space. For
