A) geometrical
B) optical
C) chain
D) positional
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
The compounds which differ in the nature of carbon chain, are called chain isomers, eg, \[\underset{n-pentane}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{3}}}}\,\] \[\underset{iso-pentane}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}-\overset{\begin{smallmatrix} C{{H}_{3}} \\ | \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{CH}}\,-C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{3}}}}\,\] \[\underset{neo-pentane}{\mathop{{{H}_{3}}C-\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} | \\ C{{H}_{3}} \end{smallmatrix}}{\overset{\begin{smallmatrix} C{{H}_{3}} \\ | \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}}\,-C{{H}_{3}}}}\,\]
