MCQ
The given structures, $\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \text{CH}_3\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\\\text{CH}_3-\text{CH}-\text{CH}_3$ and CH3CH2CH2CH3 are:
  • A
    Conformational isomers.
  • B
    Chain isomers.
  • C
    Position isomers.
  • D
    Functional isomers.

Answer

  1. Chain isomers.

Explanation:

$\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \text{CH}_3\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\\\text{CH}_3-\text{CH}-\text{CH}_3,\ \text{CH}_3-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_3\\ \ \ \ \ _{2-\text{methylpropane}} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ _{\text{n-butane}}$

Molecular formula → Same

Chain of C-atom → Different

Hence, these are chain isomers.
