Short Answer TypeWhat kind of structural isomerism is shown by alkenes ?
Alkenes show two types of structural isomerism:
(i) Chain isomerism: It is caused by different arrangements of carbons in the chain. For example.
(ii) Position isomerism: It is caused due to the different positions of a double bond in the alkene. For example 1-butene and 2-butene.
