Q. Methoxy methane and ethanol are

A) Position isomers
B) Chain isomers
C) Functional isomers
D) Optical isomers
Explanation

(c)
$CH_{3}OCH_{3},\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ {\ \ \ \ C}_{2}H_{5}OH$
Methoxy methane Ethanol (ether)
(alcohol) functional group
$(C_{2}H_{6}O)$ $(C_{2}H_{6}O)$molecular formula
