Answer:

isomers.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is no term like divergent, disparate or independents in the structure difference of organic compounds.

Two or more compounds with same molecular formula but difference in the structure or spatial arrangement of atoms of the compound are known as isomers.

they can be structural isomers, where the difference is due to chain length, type of functional group, etc.

They can be stereoisomer, which have same structural formula but difference in the spatial arrangement of atoms or group of atoms.
