Answer:
Molecules can differ in the way the atoms are arranged - the same combination of atoms can be assembled in more than one way. These compounds are known as isomers. Isomers are molecules with the same molecular formulas, but different arrangements of atoms.

Stereoisomers are compounds with the same composition same atomic arrangement with different orientations in space
- When two compounds have the same composition and the same atoms attached to the same atoms, although with different orientations in space, such compounds can be said to be stereoisomers of each other.
- Stereoisomers are similar compounds that have different spatial configurations.
Thus, the answer to the given question of the relationship between similar compounds with different spatial orientations will be (Option 4) stereoisomer.
