(a)
Interpretation:
Structures of A and B should be identified as constitutional isomers, stereo isomers or not isomers of each other.
Concept Introduction:
Isomers are the different molecules that have the same molecular formula but differ in molecular arrangement in the space. There are several groups of isomers.
Stereoisomers are the form of isomers which have different three-dimensional orientations in the space.
Constitutional isomers are the form of isomers which have atoms bonded to each other in different ways.
(b)
Interpretation:
Structures of A and C should be identified as constitutional isomers, stereo isomers or not isomers of each other.
Concept Introduction:
Alkenes are hydrocarbon molecules that consist of a carbon-carbon double bond which has the general formula of
