A

3

B

4

C

5

D

2

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`DBE=C+1-(H)/(2)-(X)/(2)+(N)/(2)=2+1-(4)/(2)=1`
It indicates the presence of a double bond or a cyclic structure. Therefore, three isomers are possible.
`CH_(3)-CH=O" "underset(("Tautomer of acetaldehyde"))(CH_(2)=CH-OH)`
Vinyl acohol is not a stable isomer.
