Metamerism is due to the presence of different alkyl groups attached to the same bivalent functional group

The isomerism exhibited due to the difference in the size of the alkyl groups attached to the same functional group is

What is an alkyl group?

'Carboxylic acid' functional group is

Molecules having same molecular formula. But differing in structure (or) spatial orientation of atom is known isomers and phenomenon known as isomerism. Molecules which differ in structural formula are known as structural isomers and phenomenon is known as structural isomerism structural isomerism can be broadly classified as (i) Chain isomerism (ii) Positional isomerism (iii) Functional isomerism (iv) Metamerism (v) Tautomerism Molecules having same molecular formula but differing in spatial orientation are known as stereo isomers and the phenomenon known as stereo isomerism. Stero isomerism can be classified as (i) Geometrical isomerism (ii) Optical isomerism The phenomenon in which molecules having same molecular formula and same functional group but differing in the nature of alkyl group attached to functional group known as
