Question

Are isomers and stereoisomers the same thing?

Answer 1

hey mate here's your answer

NO because

Constitutional isomers typically have different connectivities and stereoisomers have the same connectivities but differ in spatial arrangements. enantiomers are stereoisomers that are non-superimposeable mirror images of one another. Your hands are (roughly) enantiomers.

please mark as brainliest ✌✌✌✌

Answer 2

Stereoisomers have identical molecular formulas and arrangements of atoms. They differ from each other only in the spatial orientation of groups in the molecule. The simplest forms of stereoisomers are cis and transisomers, both of which are created by the restricted rotation about a double bond or ring system. Butene, C 4H 8, exists.

Isomers are compounds with different physical and chemical properties but the same molecular formula. In organic chemistry, there are many cases of isomerism. For example, the formula C 4H 10 represents both butane and 2‐methylpropane.
