Question

Identify the pair of organic compounds which belongs to homologous series.

Options

• CH₃CH₂OH, CH₃OCH₂CH₃

• CH₃CH₂OCH₃, CH₃OCH₂CH₃

• CH₃CH₂CH₂OH, CH₃CH₂CHO

• CH₃OCH₃, CH₃OCH₂CH₃

Answer 1

CH₃OCH₃, CH₃OCH₂CH₃

Explanation:

CH₃CH₂OH, CH₃OCH₂CH₃ and CH₃CH₂CH₂OH, CH₃CH₂CHO are the pairings CH₃CH₂OCH₃, CH₃OCH₂CH₃ and CH₃OCH₃CH₂CH₂OH and CH₃CH₂CHO are two distinct compounds. because the functional groups in each pair of molecules are different The CH₃CH₂OCH₃ is a pair of chemicals. CH₃OCH₂CH₃ is the same as CH₃OCH₂CH₃. CH₃OCH₃ is a pair. CH₃OCH₂CH₃ belongs to the same homologous series as CH₃OCH₂CH₂. The −CH₂ unit distinguishes the compounds, and they are in the same functional group.
