Worked solution

I and V, I and VI, I and VII, II and V, II and VI, II and VII, III and V, III and VI, III and VII, IV and V, IV and VI, IV and VII. Alcholol is the function group of each ether in the given seven compounds.

Q25Written answer

Identify the pairs of compounds that represent position isomerism.

Show solutionHide solution
Worked solution

I and II, III and IV, V and VI are the compounds which represent the position isomerism.

Position isomerism means where the length of the parent chain and functional group is the same, but the position of the functional group is different; then it is called position isomer.
