1-butene.
Cis-2-butene.
Trans-2-butene.
Cyclobutene.
Methyl cyclopropane.
2-methyl butene.

That any one of these is not an isomer of C4H8.

So except for itself, it should.

The number of isomers is 6 in which 4 is structural & 2 is geometrical isomers.

So please read carefully in question. So question is say that how many isomers is possible of butane you know question is going to only alkane isomers, not for alkene Cyclo so on. 2 isomer is possible Butane and 2 methy propane.

Any formula to find out no. of isomers?

Prabal Singh said:   1 decade ago
1-butene has the molecular formula C4H8.

All possible structural isomers of 1-butene must have the molecular formula C4H8. 1-butene, 2-butene, 2-methylpropene and 4. cyclobutane are structural isomers. They have the same molecular formula, C4H8, but different structural formulae.

Is any trick to count total number of possible of a hydrocarbon?

Prasanta said:   1 decade ago
Isomer means the compounds of same molecular formula having different structures.

Isomer means the compounds having different structures of the same compound.

Please tell me how to know the isomers of compounds. If any formulas are there?
