Choose the incorrect option regarding Isomerism.
Correct answer: B. They have the different molecular formula
- A. They differ in both physical and chemical properties
- B. They have the different molecular formula
- C. There are two types of Isomerism : Structural and Stereo Isomerism
- D. Geometric and optical isomerism are two types of Stereo Isomerism
Explanation
Two or more compounds having the same moleculer formula but different structural formulas and properties are said to be isomers and the phenomenon is called isomerism. It is of two types: 1)Structural isomerism. 2)Stereoisomerism.

About Fundamental Principles of Organic Chemistry
Organic chemistry begins with carbon compounds classified by carbon skeleton, saturation and functional group. Work includes identifying groups such as hydroxyl, carbonyl, carboxyl and amino, applying basic nomenclature, and distinguishing structural, geometric and optical isomers, where the same molecular formula does not necessarily mean the same structure or properties.
