Q. Which type of isomerism is most common among ethers?

BVP MedicalBVP Medical 2005

Solution:

Ethers show metamerism. Metamerism arises when a polyvalent functional group (e.g.
etc.) is attached to different alkyl groups but the molecular formula remains same e.g., $ {{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}-O-{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}} $ and $ C{{H}_{3}}-O-{{C}_{3}}{{H}_{7}} $
