Question

Which descriptions apply to isomers? Check all that apply.
a.same molecular formula
b.different molecular formula
c.same structural formula
d.different structural formula
e.only hydrocarbons
f.same number of each kind of atom
g.same geometric arrangement of atoms

Answer 1

Explanation:

Isomers are the molecules which have same molecular formula but different arrangement of atoms.

Or, we can say that isomers have different geometric arrangements.

Thus, we can conclude that following descriptions are applied to isomers.

• same molecular formula
• different structural formula
• same number of each kind of atom

Answer 2

The description which applies to isomers is that they are having the same molecular formula and different structural formulas.

What the above answer applies to isomers?

• Structural Isomers are that have the same chemical formula but the different physical arrangements of the atoms and/or bonds.
• Isomers are that they have the same molecular formula.
• Isomers not only include hydrocarbons but also functional groups.
• Isomers do not have the same geometric arrangement as atoms.
• A functional group is a common grouping of atoms, such as O-H or C=O, that categorizes a molecule and that affects the molecule's chemical properties.

Hence, the correct options are (a) the same molecular formula and (d)different structural formula.
