Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
$ \underset{\text{Pentan-1-ol}}{\mathop{CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-OH}}, $
$ CH_3-O-C_3H_7 $
$ \underset{2-Methylbutan-l-ol}{\mathop{\overset{4}{\mathop{CH_3}},-\overset{3,}{\mathop{CH_2}},-\underset{CH_3}{\mathop{\underset{|,}{\mathop{\overset{2,}{\mathop{CH}},}},}},-\overset{1,}{\mathop{CH_2}},-OH}}, $
$ \underset{2,2-Dimethylpropan-l-ol}{\mathop{\overset{3,}{\mathop{CH_3}},-\underset{CH_3,}{\overset{CH_3,}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\overset{|,}{\mathop{\overset{2,}{\mathop{C,-,}}}}},}}},\overset{1}{\mathop{CH_2}},-OH}}, $
