Compounds which have the same molecular formula but the different structural formula is called:
Correct answer: A. structural isomer
- A. structural isomer
- B. optical isomer
- C. molecular isomer
- D. Position isomer
Explanation
Structural isomers are molecules that have the same moleculer formula,but have a different arrangement of the atoms in space.

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.
