Solution

The correct option is C CH3CH=CHCH3

Compounds having the same structure of the carbon chain but differ only in the position of the multiple (double or triple) bonds or the functional group is called positional isomers and the phenomenon is called positional isomerism.

CH3CH2CH=CH2C4H8

Checking for all the options.
CH3CH2CH2CH2CH3 C5H12
CH3CH2CH2CH3C4H10
CH3CH=CHCH3C4H8
CH3CH|CH3CH2CH3C5H12

There is a difference in the position of the double bond.

Hence, CH3CH=CHCH3C4H8 is the correct answer.
