Solution

The correct option is D Dimethyl ether
Dimethyl ether would be the functional isomer of ethanol. Both have the molecular formula of $C_{2} H_{6} O$ but one is an ether and the other is an alcohol.

Functional isomers are the ones with same molecular formula but different functional group.
