Concept Introduction:

Isomers are the compounds having same molecular formula but different structure. The phenomenon possessed by the molecules is known as isomerism.

Compounds having same molecular formula but possessing different connectivity of atoms or group of atoms are known as constitutional isomers.

The compounds which have same molecular formula, same connectivity of bond but the arrangement of atoms in space is different are known as stereoisomers.

The compounds having same bond connectivity and same molecular formula are known as identical molecules.

Soap is made by the previous reaction *see image. The main difference between one soap and another soap isthe length (number of carbons) of the carboxylic acid. However, if a soap irritates your skin, they mostlikely used too much lye.Detergents have the same chemical structure as soaps except for the functional group. Detergentshave sulfate (R-SO4H) and phosphate (R-PO4H2) functional groups. Draw the above carboxylic acidcarbon chain but as the two variants of detergents. *see image
