The pair of molecules that are metamers among the following is :

Solution

Metamers are structural isomers of the same homologous series that differ in the alkyl groups attached to the same functional group. Methyl propyl ether (CH $_{3}$ OCH $_{2}$ CH $_{2}$ CH $_{3}$ ) and diethyl ether (CH $_{3}$ CH $_{2}$ OCH $_{2}$ CH $_{3}$ ) both have molecular formula C $_{4}$ H $_{10}$ O and both are ethers, but differ in the alkyl groups on either side of the O — classic metamerism.
