Question

What type of isomers are $C{H}_{3}C{H}_{2}OC{H}_3$ and $C{H}_{3}C{H}_{2}C{H}_{2}OH$?

• A. Functional
• B. Symmetrical
• C. Configurational
• D. Conformational

Answer 1

The correct option is A Functional

Isomers which show a difference in the functional group present in the carbon chain and have same molecular formula are known as functional isomers.
Ether$C{H}_{3}C{H}_{2}OC{H}_3$ and alcohol $C{H}_{3}C{H}_{2}C{H}_{2}OH$ have different functional groups, hence, they are functional isomers, thus option A is correct.
