(b)
Interpretation:
The structure of ester molecular formula
Concept Introduction:
The molecular formula of organic compound represents the number of bonded atoms with their atomic symbols. The structural formula represents all the bonded atoms with chemical bonds and the arrangement of atoms in the molecule. The compounds with same molecular formula and different structural formula are known as isomers. Isomers can be classified as constitutional isomers and stereoisomers.
