Interpretation:
The number of structural isomers and geometrical isomers possible for compounds having
Concept introduction:
Isomersim: Compounds having same molecular formula but exhibit different structures called isomers.This phenomenon is known as isomersim
Structural Isomerism: Structural Isomers are the structures of a molecule with same molecular formula but have different arrangements of bonds, atoms and position of double bond also changes from more substituted to less substituted or vice-versa.
Geometrical Isomerism: Compounds have same molecular formula, but differ by the arrangement of groups with respect to the double bond. This type of isomerism in case of
A chiral carbon is the carbon atom which is substituted to four different groups. Due to presence of chiral carbon a molecule become chiral and it gives optical isomers also that is
All the substituents are different hence is is a chiral carbon and so molecule.
