Structural isomer

A

Structural isomers are defined as having the same molecular formula but different structural formulae

21
Q

empirical formula

A

a formula giving the proportions of the elements present in a compound but not the actual numbers or arrangement of atoms

22
Q

molecular formula

A

A chemical formula that shows the total number and kinds of atoms in a molecule, but not their structural arrangement

23
