Options
- A(i) and (ii)
- B(ii) and (iii)
- C(i) and (iii)
- D(ii) and (iv)
Correct answer
C. (i) and (iii)
Step-by-step solution
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 - C | H O H - C H 2 - C H 3 are position isomers.
