Question 1 Report

COMPOUND S T U V W
FORMULA ROR' RCOOH' RCOR' ROH' RCOOR'

From the table above, which of these two compounds can form functional group isomers?

Answer Details

ROH' and ROR' can form functional group isomers because they are the functional groups of alcohols and ethers, respectively.

Ethers have a pair of alkyl or aromatic groups attached to a linking oxygen atom. ROH is the functional group of alcohols, which are derivatives of water with one hydrogen atom replaced by an alkyl group.

Alcohols (ROH) and ethers (ROR') can form functional group isomers because they have the same chemical formula but different functional groups. E.g CH3 3 CH2 2 OH and CH3 3 OCH3
