Answer:

Isomerism, the existence of molecules that have the same numbers of the same kinds of atoms (and hence the same formula) but differ in chemical and physical properties. The roots of the word isomer are Greek—isos plus meros, or “equal parts.” Stated colloquially, isomers are chemical compounds that have the same parts but are nonetheless not the same. To make a crude analogy, two bracelets, each consisting of five red and five green beads, could be arranged in many different isomeric forms, depending on the order of the colours. Each bracelet would have the same parts—that is, the five red and five green beads—but each variation would be different. One could also imagine combinations of those same beads in which pendant chains were attached to a bracelet in a variety of ways. One might imagine two bracelets of the same red-green order but with identical chains attached in different orientations. Such structures also would be analogous to isomers. In a more subtle analogy, one’s hands can be seen as isomeric. Each hand possesses the same kinds of fingers, but a right hand can never be superimposed perfectly on a left hand; they are different.

Answer:

There are two primary types of isomerism, which can be further categorized into different subtypes. These primary types are Structural Isomerism and Stereoisomerism.
