Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the type of isomerism exhibited by the given pairs of compounds, we will analyze each pair one by one. ### Step 1: Identify the first pair - Butan-1-ol and Butan-2-ol 1. **Draw the structures**: - Butan-1-ol: CH3-CH2-CH2-CH2OH (the hydroxyl group is on the first carbon) - Butan-2-ol: CH3-CH2-CHOH-CH3 (the hydroxyl group is on the second carbon) 2. **Analyze the isomerism**: ...
