Given below are the structures of few compounds with molecular formula `C_(4)H_(10)O`. Select metamers from these structures.
(i) `CH_(3)-O-CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(3)`
(ii) `CH_(3)CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(2)OH`
(iii) `CH_(3)-CH_(2)-O-CH_(2)-CH_(3)`
(iv) `CH_(3)-underset(OH)underset(|)(C)H-CH_(2)-CH_(3)`

A

(i) and (ii)

B

(ii) and (iii)

C

(i) and (iii)

D

(ii) and (iv)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`CH_(3)OCH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(3) and CH_(3)CH_(2)OCH_(2)CH_(3)` are metamers. (ii) and (iv) i.e., `CH_(3)CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(2)OH and CH_(3)-underset(OH)underset(|)(C)H-CH_(2)-CH_(3)` are position isomers.
