Answer:
The phenomenon in which different compounds having the same functional groups at different positions on the parent chain is known as position isomerism.
For example,
But-2-ene [CH_3 -CH=CH-CH_3]
and but-1-ene (CH_2 = CH – CH_2 - CH_3] are position isomers of each other as they have the same molecular formula C_4 H_8 and the same carbon skeleton but the double bonds are located at different positions.
