Molecules having same molecular formula....

Molecules having same molecular formula. But differing in structure (or) spatial orientation of atom is known isomers and phenomenon known as isomerism. Molecules which differ in structural formula are known as structural isomers and phenomenon is known as structural isomerism structural isomerism can be broadly classified as
(i) Chain isomerism (ii) Positional isomerism (iii) Functional isomerism
(iv) Metamerism (v) Tautomerism
Molecules having same molecular formula but differing in spatial orientation are known as stereo isomers and the phenomenon known as stereo isomerism. Stero isomerism can be classified as
(i) Geometrical isomerism (ii) Optical isomerism
Which of the following pair exhibit functional isomerism

A

ether and alcohol

B

ether and ketone

C

ketone and carboxylic acid

D

carboxylic acid and alcohol

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Ether and alocohol have same molecular formula but different functional groups.
