Question

Functional isomer of $C{H}_3-C{H}_2-OH$ is:

• A.
• B. CH₃−CH₂−CHO
• C. CH₃−O−CH₃
• D. All of these

Answer 1

The correct option is C

CH₃−O−CH₃

Compounds having the same molecular formula but different functional groups are called functional isomers and the phenomenon is called functional isomerism.

Methoxy methane and ethanol have the same molecular formula $C_2{H}_{6}O$ but different functional groups.

There, $C{H}_3-O-C{H}_3$ is the correct answer.
