Step 1

The isomers having identical molecular formula and different bonding arrangement are the constitutional or structural isomers. Stereoisomers are the isomers having identical molecular formula and same arrangement, but its spatial orientation of groups in a molecule differ between isomers.

Step 2

The given pair of alkenes is shown below,

Chemistry homework question answer, step 2, image 1

The chemical formula for both the compounds is C9H16. In these compounds, the molecular formula is identical. The spatial orientation of groups attaching to the double bonded carbon is different. Hence, the compounds are stereoisomers.
