Solution Steps

Step 1: Understand the Concept

Molecules that have the same molecular formula but differ in the arrangement of their atoms are referred to as isomers. Isomers can have different physical and chemical properties despite having the same number of each type of atom.

Step 2: Identify the Type of Isomers

There are several types of isomers, including structural isomers (or constitutional isomers), which differ in the connectivity of their atoms, and stereoisomers, which have the same connectivity but differ in the spatial arrangement of atoms.

Final Answer

The molecules with the same molecular formula but different arrangements of their atoms are known as \(\boxed{\text{isomers}}\).
