Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Molecular formula `C_4H_(10)O(C_nH(2n+2)O)` represents monohydric alcohol and aliphatic ethers (functional isomers). Four alcohols are possible: `CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2OH,CH_3CH(OH)CH_2CH_3,(CH_3)CHCH_2OH`, and `(CH_3)_3COH`. Three ethers are possible: `CH_3OCH_2CH_2CH_3,CH_3OCH(CH_3)_2` and `CH_3CH_2OCH_2CH_3`.
