Solution

The correct option is C isomers
An isomer is a molecule with the same chemical formula as another molecule, but with a different chemical structure i.e. an isomer contains the same number of atoms of each element, but have different arrangements of their atoms.Isomers do not necessarily share similar properties, unless they also have the same functional groups.
