Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
$ C_4H_{10}O $ have six isomers are possible
1.$ \underset{\text{Butan-1-ol}}{\mathop{CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2-OH}}, $
2.$ \underset{\text{Butan-2-ol}}{\mathop{CH_3-CH_2-\underset{OH}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{CH}},}},-CH_3}}, $
3.$ CH_3-\underset{OH}{\overset{H}{\mathop{\underset{|,}{\overset{|}{\mathop{{C^{*}}}}},}}},-COOH $
4.$ \underset{2-\text{Methyl-propan-2-ol}}{\mathop{CH_3-\underset{OH}{\overset{CH_3}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\overset{|,}{\mathop{C,-,}}},}}},CH_3}}, $
5.$ \underset{Methyl,propyl,ether}{\mathop{CH_3-O-C_3H_7}}, $
6.$ \underset{Diethyl,ether}{\mathop{C_2H_5-O-C_2H_5}}, $
