Isomers are compounds with the same molecular formula but different structures from "summary" of Organic Chemistry by John E. McMurry
Isomers are compounds that have the same molecular formula but different structures. This means that they contain the same number of atoms of each element but arrange them in different ways. These differences in structure can lead to differences in physical and chemical properties, making isomers distinct compounds with unique characteristics.
There are two main types of isomers: structural isomers and stereoisomers. Structural isomers have different structural arrangements of atoms, resulting in different connectivity between atoms. This can lead to differences in properties such as boiling point, melting point, and reactivity. For example, butane and isobutane are structural isomers of each other, with different arrangements of carbon atoms.
