Isomerism : The phenomenon of possessing same molecular formula but, different properties by the compounds is known as isomerism.

The compounds that exhibit isomerism are called isomers.

Catenation : If an element forms bonds between its own atoms to give big molecule we call this property as catenation property.

Carbon has ability to form longest chains with its own atoms.
