Test 1 question 80:
I actually didnt like this question when I read it and put to much thought into an easy question:
Two isomers of same molecular formula are closest in physical and chemical properties when exhibiting ______ isomerism:
conformation
constitutional
geometric
enantiomeric
diasteriomeric
They say conformational and I agree because its the same molecule but I remember learning in OChem that enantiomers have the same chemical and phyical properties which is why I selected it. Heres wiki: "Enantiomers have, when present in a symmetric environment, identical chemical and physical properties"
I know im wrong because conformational is obviously the same thing but had to get it out...
