NEET Chemistry Isomerism MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-diagram based-Medium-Class 11
Consider a molecular diagram of C4H10 with different carbon skeletons. Which type of isomerism is exhibited by these compounds?
A
Chain isomerism
B
Functional group isomerism
C
Geometrical isomerism
D
Optical isomerism
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
Chain isomerism occurs when compounds have the same molecular formula but different carbon skeletons. In the case of C4H10, the compounds can exhibit different arrangements of carbon atoms, which fits the definition of chain isomerism.
