Question

Which compound is not as isomer of the other three

Answer 1

Answer:

Isomers are compounds having the same molecular formula but different structure. The compounds A, B, and C have the same molecular formula (C8H14) while the molecular formula for compound D is C8H12. Hence D is the correct answer.

Answer 2

Isomers are compounds that contain exactly the same number of atoms.

• Isomers are compounds that have the same number of atoms, and hence the same empirical formula, but differ in the way the atoms are organised.
• Diastereoisomers are isomers made up of different combinations of right- and left-handed (chiral) portions of molecules.
• Isomers are chemical compounds that have the same chemical formula but have distinct structures. They're crucial in air pollution chemistry because even minor structural variations can result in significant chemical and physical differences.
• Significant physical variations can be attributed to differences in structure.
• Optical isomers, also known as chiral versions of the same chemical, are mirror reflections of one another. The lefthanded version, for example, may be nearly harmless and readily biodegradable, but the righthanded form may be hazardous and persistent.
