Chapter 12.2, Problem 12.10P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The relation between ball-and-stick models A and B should be stated along with whether they are constitutional isomers or similar molecules.

General, Organic, & Biological Chemistry, Chapter 12.2, Problem 12.10P

Concept Introduction:

Compounds consist of carbon and hydrogen is known as hydrocarbons. Hydrocarbons are classified as saturated hydrocarbon and unsaturated hydrocarbon. Saturated hydrocarbons are those hydrocarbons in which carbon-carbon single bond is present as carbon is linked with four atoms. Unsaturated hydrocarbons are those hydrocarbons in which carbon-carbon multiple bonds are present that is double and triple bond.

Saturated hydrocarbon is known as alkane having general molecular formula CnH2n+2.

The compounds having similar chemical formula but different structures are known as isomers.

The isomers which has same molecular formula but arrangement of atoms are different, thus because of different arrangement of atoms, functional group may change is known as constitutional isomers. The constitutional isomer is also known as structural isomers.
