Answer:

Correct Answer: 25. (b,c)

Solution:

  1. Diethyl ether $\left(\mathrm{C}{2} \mathrm{H}{5} \mathrm{OC}{2} \mathrm{H}{5}\right)$ will be isomeric with all 4-carbon saturated alcohols. Butanone $\left(\mathrm{CH}{3} \mathrm{CH}{2} \mathrm{COCH}_{3}\right)$ is unsaturated, has two hydrogen less than the diethylether.
