Solution

The correct option is C Metamers
$C_{2} H_{5} - O - C_{2} H_{5}$ and $C H_{3} - O - C H_{2} C H_{2} C H_{3}$ have the same molecular formula, mass and functional groups. However, since the nature of alkyl groups around the polyvalent functional groups is different in both the molecules, they are metamers.
