Solution

The correct option is C
Chain isomerism

These isomers arise because of the possibility of branching in carbon chains. These are molecules with the same molecular formula, but different arrangements of the carbon 'skeleton'. In other words, it is a type of structural isomer in which two or more compounds have same molecular formula but have different skeleton of carbon chain.
