Stereochemistry

Question 1

the study of the relative arrangement of atoms in molecules and their manipulation.

Answer 1

stereochemistry

Question 2

species with the same atoms in the same numbers, i.e., the same molecular formula but are arranged differently in space.

Answer 2

isomers

Question 3

isomers that have different carbon skeletons.

Answer 3

skeletal isomers

Question 4

isomers that have different reactive features

Answer 4

functional group

Question 5

isomers that have the same reactive features

Answer 5

positional isomers

Question 6

have the same sequence of bonds but the atoms or groups of atoms are oriented differently in space.

Answer 6

stereoisomers

Question 7

these are the stereoisomers in which the different orientations of atoms are a result of rotation around single bonds.

Answer 7

conformers or conformational isomers

Question 8

The specific arrangement of atoms in a conformational isomer

Answer 8

conformation

Question 9

these are stereoisomers that can be interconnected only by breaking and making some bonds.

Answer 9

configurational isomers

Question 10

The specific arrangement of atoms in a configuration isomer is also called

Answer 10

configuration

Question 11

A pair of stereoisomers that are related to each other as non-superimposable mirror images are

Answer 11

enantiomers

Question 12

An object or molecule that cannot be superimposed on its mirror image by any translation, rotational, or conformational changes is a _____

Answer 12

chiral object

Question 13

the geometric property of chiral is called

Answer 13

chirality

Question 14

Stereoisomers that are not enantiomers

Answer 14

diastereomers
