Select the correct answer

The graphic shows two isomers of a chemical compound

The graphic above displays two isomers of a chemical compound with the molecular formula C5H11NO2. Isomers are compounds with the same molecular formula but different structures. In this case, we are presented with two different structures of the same compound.

Which type of isomers are these?

The options provided are:

A. Structural isomers

B. Geometric isomers

C. Halotropic isomers

d. Structural Isomers

To determine the correct answer, we need to understand the definitions of each type of isomer and apply it to the given structures.

What type of isomers are depicted in the graphic?

The correct answer is A. Structural isomers. Structural isomers are compounds that have the same molecular formula but different structural arrangements of atoms. In the graphic, we can see that the two structures have different configurations, indicating that they are structural isomers.
