CH3-O-CH2CH2CH3 and CH3-CH2-O-CH2-CH3 are metamers. (ii) and (iv) i.e. CH3CH2CH2CH2OH and CH3- undersetO H underset|.C H-CH2-CH3 are position isomers.

Q. Given below are the structure of few compounds with molecular formula C4​H10​O . Select metamers from these structure. (i) CH3​−O−CH2​CH2​CH3​ (ii) CH3​CH2​CH2​CH2​OH (iii) CH3​−CH2​−O−CH2​−CH3​ (iv) CH3​−OH∣C​H​−CH2​−CH3​

(i) and (ii)

(ii) and (iii)

(i) and (iii)

(ii) and (iv)

CH3​−O−CH2​CH2​CH3​ and CH3​−CH2​−O−CH2​−CH3​ are metamers. (ii) and (iv) i.e. CH3​CH2​CH2​CH2​OH and CH3​−OH∣C​H​−CH2​−CH3​ are position isomers.

$C H_{3} - O - C H_{2} C H_{2} C H_{3}$ and $C H_{3} - C H_{2} - O - C H_{2} - C H_{3}$ are metamers.

(ii) and (iv) i.e. $C H_{3} C H_{2} C H_{2} C H_{2} O H$ and $C H_{3} - O H ∣ C H - C H_{2} - C H_{3}$ are position isomers.
