Stereoisomerism: Unlocking the Secrets of Molecular Twins
Stereoisomerism refers to isomers that have the same molecular formula and connectivity but differ in the three-dimensional arrangement of their atoms. This type of isomerism includes both geometrical isomers and optical isomers....

Geometrical Isomerism: When Structure Changes Everything
Geometrical isomerism (cis-trans isomerism) occurs in molecules with restricted rotation around a bond, typically a double bond or within a ring system. In such isomers, substituents are arranged differently in space. In the cis isomer,...

Chain & Positional Isomerism: Same Formula, Different Shape!
Chain and positional isomerism are types of structural isomerism in organic chemistry, where compounds have the same molecular formula but different structures. In chain isomerism, the carbon backbone differs in branching; for example,...

What Are Structural Isomers
In this video we will look at some different structures of butane - so they all have 4 carbons but just arranged differently. We will also look at the the 5 different isomers for hexane - they all have 6 carbons (and hence are hexane...
