Solution
The correct option is B For a compound with molecular formula CcHhXxNnOo Degree of unsaturation=(c+1)−h2−x2+n2 Where, X = Halogen c=number of carbon atom h=number of hydrogen atom n=number of nitrogen atom o=number of oxygen atom In C9H18O Degree of unsaturation=(9+1)−182=1 Compound has one degree of unsaturation, it can either one ring or one double bond. All have sp3 hybridized carbons so cannot have double bond thus one ring will be present. Also, all hydrogens are identical as per question. Hence coorect option is b.
