Compound $\ce{C_2H_6O}$ has two isomers $X$ and $Y.$ On reaction with $HI, X$ gives alkyl iodide and water while $Y$ gives alkyl iodide and alcohol.Compounds $X$ and $Y$ are respectively:
The high boiling point of ethanol $(78.2^\circ C)$ compared to dimethyl ether $(−23.6^\circ C),$ though both having the same molecular formula $C_2H_6O,$ is due to:
