ChemistryAmines and azo dyesA2/A-levelOCR Created by: Sophie ThompsonCreated on: 10-11-13 16:04 Isomerism Compounds with the same molecular formula but different arrangement of atoms in space. 1 of 8 Structural Isomerism The same molecular formula but the structural formula is different. 2 of 8 Positional Isomerism The molecular formula and the functional group are the same, but the arrangement of the carbon atoms is different. 3 of 8 Chain Isomerism The molecular formula and the functional group are the same, but the arrangement of the carbon atoms is different. 4 of 8 Functional Group Isomerism The molecular formula is the same, but the functional group is different. 5 of 8 Stereoisomerism The same molecular and structural formula, but different orientation of bonds in space. 6 of 8 Geometrical Isomerism The molecular formula, and the structural formula are the same, but the displayed formula is different – E/Z isomerism. 7 of 8 Optical Isomerism Contains an asymmetric carbon so have no plane of symmetry. Isomers are non-superimposable on each other. 8 of 8
