FAQs on Solved Example: Isomerism - Chemistry for JEE Main & Advanced

1. What is isomerism?
Ans. Isomerism is a phenomenon in which two or more compounds have the same molecular formula but different structural arrangements, leading to different chemical and physical properties.
2. How many types of isomerism are there?
Ans. There are two main types of isomerism: structural isomerism, where the atoms are arranged in a different order, and stereoisomerism, where the spatial arrangement of atoms differs.
3. Can you give an example of structural isomerism?
Ans. An example of structural isomerism is the compounds butane and isobutane, which have the same molecular formula (C4H10) but different structures.
4. What is the significance of isomerism in chemistry?
Ans. Isomerism is significant in chemistry as it helps in understanding the relationship between the structure of a compound and its properties, reactivity, and behavior in various chemical reactions.
5. How can one distinguish between different types of isomers?
Ans. Different types of isomers can be distinguished by analyzing their structural formulas, physical properties, and behavior in chemical reactions. Techniques like spectroscopy and chromatography can also be used for identification.
