Solution

The correct option is A 1-Methoxybutane and 1-Methoxy-2-methyl propane
1-Methoxybutane $C H_{3} - C H_{2} - C H_{2} - C H_{2} - O - C H_{3}$ and 1-Methoxy-2-methyl propane $(C H_{3})_{2} - C H - C H_{2} - O - C H_{3}$ are chain isomers. They have same molecular formula and same alkyl group on either side of oxygen atom but different arrangement of the carbon chain within the alkyl group.
